Sean got the remaining Xserves configured to run independently from the master node of the cluster they belonged to and installed OS X 10.11 (El Capitan).
The new computer names are Ostrich (formerly node004) and Emu (formerly node002).
He enabled remote screen sharing and remote access for them.
Sean also installed a working hard drive on Roadrunner and got that back up and running.
I went through this morning and configured the computers with some other changes (some for my user account, others for the entire computer):
Renamed computers to reflect just the corresponding bird name (hostnames had been labeled as “bird name’s Xserve”)
Created srlab user accounts
Changed srlab user accounts to Standard instead of Administrative
Created steven user account
Turned on Firewalls
Granted remote login access to all users (instead of just Administrators)
Installed Docker Toolbox
Changed power settings to start automatically after power failure
Added computer name to login screen via Terminal:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.ap.loginwindow LoginwindowText “TEXT GOES HERE”Changed computer HostName via Terminal so that Terminal displays computer name:
sudo scutil –set HostName “TEXT GOES HERE”Installed Mac Homebrew (I don’t know if installation of Homebrew is “global” - i.e. installs for all users)
Used Mac Homebrew to install
