Post subject: | [SOLVED] Questions on Standalone mode |
When I installed LinHES I set it for standalone. I didn't think I would try it out with a frontend. Now I'm setting up a frontend (for fun - possibly more) and it can't talk to the standalone. Can I change my standalone to be a ME/BE system or is it too late? (I haven't dug too deep yet -- so I thought I'd ask here) Thanks, -Ben |

Go into the service menu > LinHES Config and change it from there. |

The only menu I see where I could do something like that is LinHES Config -> System Type -> Host Settings Type of System Setup: Standalone And the screen is not wired to let me change that. -Ben |

Type of System Setup: Standalone And the screen is not wired to let me change that. Strange. I can do it here. You can try to manually edit /etc/systemconfig. This is where the LinHES settings are stored. Be sure to save a copy of the file before you go tinkering...just in case. |

Er, ok, digging around -- not able to find... What are the available options for that field (keeping case sensitivity in mind) Thanks, -Ben |

OK, I think I found it... it's "Master_backend" But I suppose the question still remains.. why can't I change my system? (like you can) -- I haven't fidgeted with any of the menus like that. I did see in /etc/my.cnf, it could be as simple as commenting out skip-networking or as complicated as having to sort through all the changes that /usr/MythVantage/bin/mv_hostype.py seems to inflict.

You best bet to find him (or other help) would be in irc.feddnode.net in channel #linhes. Particularly in the late afternoon/evening pacific time. |

It's grayed out by default to prevent accidental changes. There is a config option in the access section to enable the selection |

There is a config option in the access section to enable the selection THAT's it! Thanks... I thought I'd seen it somewhere!! Ok - doing the change now. Although Myth is taking a LOoonnnngg time on "Transferring database settings" --- Mythinstall is taking about 5-6% of the the cpu.... and it's just chugging. That has me a little worried. It's the top process as shown by top. The system is showing about 35% use though. So, I'll let it run for a while just in case. But I don't have warm fuzzies. -Ben |

Well, er, It's been spinning for 30 minutes (maybe a little more) and I'm still showing "Transferring database settings"... time to shutdown -r ?? |

Your best best is to check the log files to see why it's in a loop. Will probably have to kill it and run setup manual to repair the broken stuff. |
