Deploy Compute Nodes

Consider the network that our login1 machine is a member of. Compute Nodes will now be built and launched on this network. Once they are launched, the login1 machine will detect their presence and automatically configure them.

Run the command:

metal hunter

You will see the following output:

Note that the [ 298.603336] shown will not necessarily match the one on your display, but you will notice a decimal number enclosed in square brackets.

[  298.603336] device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
Waiting for new nodes to appear on the network, please network boot them now...
(Ctrl-C to terminate)

As indicated, boot the nodes. But before we boot the nodes, we must first define them.
