Host entry for odnodes

John742

Currently we have three servers (test,QA,Prod) and during the process of upgrading to 6.5, we are making standardizations to all of our files. For now I would like Teamsite to manage my config files. Specifically (for now) Open Deploy's odnodes. In order to do this I would want this file to be identical in qa,test,and prod. Each of our servers deploys to itself so I wanted to make general entries that would work for the server the file was on. This was my idea but I am having problems.

OD nodes entry:
<nodeSet name="od receiver nodes">
<node name="localserver"
host="localhost"
port="20014"
/>


.xml files entries:
<deploymentConfiguration>

<localNode host="localhost"/>

<replicationFarmSet>
<replicationFarm name="MYFARMNAME">
<nodeRef useNode="localserver"/>
</replicationFarm>
</replicationFarmSet>


Open Deploy is able to resolve (<localNode host="localhost"/>) localhost to the local box all ok, but it does not like resolving localhost when it matches localserver in the odnodes file. If I replace the host value (localhost) in odnodes with the actual server name all is ok. Leaving "localhost" in odnodes the deployment completes with errors and this is the error in the micro log:

**It seems it just refuses to resolve localhost in the odnodes file, but will resolve server name or ip address?????

Did you restart the OD service(s) after changing the odnodes.xml file ?
Can you make a connection using "telnet localhost 20014" (or which ever port you are using)
