Error creating a 3-node DB using Vertica 23.4.0

aoropeza

I'm installing Vertica 23.4.0 and creating a 3-node database using the following commands:

rpm -Uvh "${V_RPM}"
/opt/vertica/sbin/install_vertica --hosts "${V_NODES}" --rpm "${V_RPM}" --data-dir "${V_DATA}" --dba-user-password ${U_PASS} --accept-eula --ssh-password "${U_PASS}" --license CE --clean --failure-threshold HINT
admintools --debug -t create_db -d "${V_DB}" -p "${V_PASS}" -D "${V_DATA}" -c "${V_CATALOG}" -s "${V_NODES}"

    Distributing changes to cluster.

But I got stuck with the next prompt:

It is suggested that you continue waiting.
Do you want to continue waiting? You have 120 seconds to answer (yes/no) [yes]

Checking admintools.log I just see this:

Some ideas to resolve this?
