MGM nodes not starting up

Hello,
new to EOS, I’m trying to install a proof of concept in a sandbox.
Anyway I am already stuck with the MGM nodes not starting up.

I installed 2 eos servers on CENTOS 7.

eos01.local is MGM MASTER1 and eos02.local is MGM MASTER2

The daemons don’t even start up.

MASTER1 config:

DAEMON_COREFILE_LIMIT=unlimited
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libjemalloc.so.1
KRB5RCACHETYPE=none
XRD_ROLES=“mq mgm sync”
EOS_MGM_HOST=eos01.local
EOS_MGM_HOST_TARGET=eos02.local
EOS_INSTANCE_NAME=eoss3df
EOS_AUTOLOAD_CONFIG=default
EOS_BROKER_URL=root://localhost:1097//eos/
EOS_GEOTAG=""
EOS_MGM_MASTER1=eos01.local
EOS_MGM_MASTER2=eos02.local
EOS_MGM_ALIAS=eos.local
EOS_MAIL_CC=“my@cern.ch”
EOS_NOTIFY=“mail -s date +%s-hostname-eos-notify $EOS_MAIL_CC”
EOS_HTTP_THREADPOOL=“epoll”
EOS_HTTP_THREADPOOL_SIZE=16
EOS_HTTP_CONNECTION_MEMORY_LIMIT=4194304
EOS_PSS_PORT=1098
EOS_PSS_MGM=$EOS_MGM_ALIAS:1094
EOS_PSS_PATH=/
EOS_TTY_BROADCAST_LISTEN_LOGFILE="/var/log/eos/mgm/xrdlog.mgm"
EOS_TTY_BROACAST_EGREP="“CRIT|ALERT|EMERG|PROGRESS”"

MASTER2 config:

DAEMON_COREFILE_LIMIT=unlimited
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libjemalloc.so.1
KRB5RCACHETYPE=none

EOS_MGM_HOST=eos02.local

starting up MGM master:

systemctl start eos@master
systemctl status eos@master

starting up MGM slave:

Aug 19 22:55:26 eos02.local echo[1465]: Configured on localhost as slave.

no log files in /var/log/eos/mgm/

Any hints ? I am stuck at this point.
Thank you

Hi Riccardo,

Try using this guide here to spawn an eos instance based on the most recent tag 4.8.60 inside Docker containers.
https://eos-docs.web.cern.ch/quickstart/docker_image.html

You can also inspect the eos-docker repository that contains all the configuration steps (scripted) needed to get a fully working EOS instance on your machine.

Cheers,
Elvin

ok thanks for the hint
