Repeat the previous steps for each interconnect in the cluster When you have assigned or updated the TCP/IP addresses, you must verify and (if necessary) update the cluster's /etc/hosts file. Mapping interconnect names to TCP/IP addresses enables you log into or reference interconnects by name instead of by using the TCP/IP dot-quad address. You can also specify the interconnect name, such as QR0T01, when using diagnostic commands. Map the addresses to the names of the interconnect chassis, using the data provided in Table 9-1. Use the following procedure to verify and update the /etc/hosts file: 1. Display the content of the /etc/hosts file by using the following command: # cat /etc/hosts 172.20.66.1 QR0N00 9-6 Postinstallation Configuration and Testing
