Problem inSSH configuration in Grid Installation for cluster

[adda.road@yahoo.com]

Hi Tim,

I am using Linux 5.6 O.S and Oracle 11gr2.
I am going to install Grid Infrastructure for 2 node cluster.

I am trying to configure SSH for user equivalency (oracle& grid),

and also i want to CHECK SSH for passwordless connectivity between these 2 nodes.

Question:-
_________
Even if i set up SSH between nodes, it is again asking password to switch between nodes.

please advice me on this.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________

I followed the following procedure.

On All the Cluster Nodes:-
____________________________
su - oracle
mkdir ~/.ssh
chmod 700 ~/.ssh

Generate the RSA and DSA keys:-
________________________________
/usr/bin/ssh-keygen -t rsa
/usr/bin/ssh-keygen -t dsa

On node1:-
_________________
touch ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
cd ~/.ssh

(a) Add these Keys to the Authorized_keys file.

cat id_rsa.pub >> authorized_keys

cat id_dsa.pub >> authorized_keys

(b) Send this file to node2.

scp authorized_keys node2:.ssh/

On node2:-
_______________________

(a) Add these Keys to the Authorized_keys file.

cd ~/.ssh

cat id_rsa.pub >> authorized_keys

cat id_dsa.pub >> authorized_keys

(b) Send this file to node1.

scp authorized_keys node1:.ssh/

On All the Nodes:-
______________________

chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

____________________________________________

Q:- After this set up i want to go to node2 from node1 , i expect it should automatically connect to node2
without prompting me the password . but it is still prompts me password .please advise me .

[oracle@node1~]$ ssh oracle@node2
oracle@node2's password:

please advise me.

thanks in advance.

Hi.

You don't have to manually set up user equivalence, the installer will do that for you.

If you still want to do it, you can use one of two methods, documented here:

http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/lin ... -linux.php

The sshUserSetup.sh method is the one the installer runs internally.

Hi.

I have no idea. I've never seen this problem before.

What happens when you use the installer to sort the user equivalence (during the GI installation)?
