| =head1 B<NAME>
 | |
| 
 | |
| B<mkzone> - Defines a new zone in the cluster. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 B<SYNOPSIS>
 | |
| 
 | |
| B<mkzone> I<zonename>  [B<--defaultzone>] [B<-k> I<full path to the ssh RSA private key>] [B<-a> I<noderange>] [B<-g>] [B<-f>] [B<-s> I<{yes|no}>] [B<-V>] 
 | |
| 
 | |
| B<mkzone> [B<-h> | B<-v>]
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 B<DESCRIPTION>
 | |
| 
 | |
| The B<mkzone> command is designed to divide the xCAT cluster into multiple zones. The nodes in each zone will share common root ssh keys. This allows the nodes in a zone to be able to as root ssh to each other without password, but cannot do the same to any node in another zone. All zones share a common xCAT Management Node and database including the site table, which defines the attributes of the entire cluster.
 | |
| The mkzone command is only supported on Linux ( No AIX support).
 | |
| The nodes are not updated with the new root ssh keys by mkzone.  You must run updatenode -k  or xdsh -K to the nodes to update the root ssh keys to the new generated zone keys. This will also sync any service nodes with the zone keys, if you have a hierarchical cluster.   
 | |
| Note: if any zones in the zone table, there must be one and only one defaultzone. Otherwise, errors will occur.

| =head1 B<OPTIONS>
 | |
| 
 | |
| =over 5
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<-h>|B<--help> 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Displays usage information. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<-v>|B<--version> 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Displays command version and build date. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<-k | --sshkeypath> I<full path to the ssh RSA private key>
 | |
| 
 | |
| This is the path to the id_rsa key that will be used to build root's ssh keys for the zone. If -k is used, it will generate the ssh public key from the input ssh RSA private key and store both in /etc/xcat/sshkeys/<zonename>/.ssh directory.
 | |
| If -f is not used,  then it will generate a set of root ssh keys for the zone and store them in /etc/xcat/sshkeys/<zonename>/.ssh.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<--default>
 | |
| 
 | |
| if --defaultzone is input, then it will set the zone defaultzone attribute to yes; otherwise it will set to no.
 | |
| if --defaultzone is input and another zone is currently the default,
 | |
| then the -f flag must be used to force a change to the new defaultzone.
 | |
| If -f flag is not use an error will be returned and no change made. 
 | |
| Note: if any zones in the zone table, there must be one and only one defaultzone. Otherwise, errors will occur.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<-a | --addnoderange> I<noderange>
 | |
| 
 | |
| For each node in the noderange, it will set the zonename attribute for that node to the input zonename.
 | |
| If the -g flag is also on the command, then
 | |
| it will add the group name "zonename" to each node in the noderange.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<-s| --sshbetweennodes> B<yes|no>
 | |
| 
 | |
| If -s entered, the zone sshbetweennodes attribute will be set to yes or no. It defaults to yes. When this is set to yes, then ssh will be setup
 | |
| to allow passwordless root access between nodes.  If no, then root will be prompted for a password when running ssh between the nodes in the zone. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<-f | --force> 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Used with the (--defaultzone) flag to override the current default zone.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<-g | --assigngroup> 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Used with the (-a) flag to create the group zonename for all nodes in the input noderange.
 | |

| =item B<-V>|B<--Verbose>

 | |
| Verbose mode.

| =over 3
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item 1.
 | |
| To make a new zone1 using defaults, enter:
 | |
| 
 | |
|  mkzone zone1
 | |
| 
 | |
| Note: with the first B<mkzone>, you will automatically get the xcatdefault zone created as the default zone.  This zone uses ssh keys from <roothome>/.ssh directory.  
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item 2.
 | |
| To make a new zone2 using defaults and make it the default zone enter:
 | |
| 
 | |
|  mkzone> zone2 --defaultzone -f
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item 3.
 | |
| 
 | |
| To make a new zone2A using the ssh id_rsa private key in /root/.ssh:
 | |
| 
 | |
|  mkzone zone2A -k /root/.ssh 
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item 4.
 | |
| 
 | |
| To make a new zone3 and assign the noderange compute3 to the zone  enter:
 | |
| 
 | |
|  mkzone zone3 -a compute3
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item 5.
 | |
| To make a new zone4 and assign the noderange compute4 to the zone and add zone4 as a group to each node  enter:
 | |
| 
 | |
|  mkzone zone4 -a compute4 -g
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item 6.
 | |
| 
 | |
| To make a new zone5 and assign the noderange compute5 to the zone and add zone5 as a group to each node but not allow passwordless ssh between the nodes  enter:
 | |
| 
 | |
|  mkzone zone5 -a compute5 -g -s no
