Software Planning and Installation Guide
The procedure for reinstalling a CSM node is different, depending on
whether you want to reinstall CSM only, or if you want to reinstall CSM and
the operating system.
To reinstall CSM, do the following:
- Issue the updatenode command to reinstall and configure CSM on
all the defined nodes:
updatenode -n nodename
See the man pages or the commands chapter of the CSM for Linux: Administration Guide for more information about
the updatenode and definenode commands.
To reinstall both CSM and the operating system, do the following:
- If you need to change one or more of the node attributes, such as
InstallDistributionVersion (operating system version), use the chnode
command. For example, to change the operating system version from Red
Hat 7.1 to 7.2, you would use the command like this:
chnode -N MangagedNodes InstallDistributionVersion='7.2'
For more information about the chnode command, see the man page or
the commands chapter of CSM for Linux: Administration Guide
- Run the csmsetupks command to reconfigure Red Hat Kickstart
and create the Kickstart configuration files.
- Run the installnode command to reinstall the nodes with the
new operating system level.
