I'm running the Zenoss5 autodeploy script on CentOS7. Everything is smooth up to the end where it just scrolls the following error over and over and finally times out.

could not create a client to the master: dial tcp 192.168.3.100:4979: connection refused
#73: Control Service is not fully started, I'm trying in next 10 seconds

#87: Control Service is not fully started, I'm trying in next 10 seconds

echo "could not create a client to the master: dial tcp 192.168.3.100:4979: connection refused" | wc -l
Problem with adding a host - check output from test: could not create a client to the master: dial tcp 192.168.3.100:4979: connection refused

I've tried re-running the script and it does the same thing. Where do I go from here

page 29 - Deploying the Zenoss Core application - you can try to follow documentation

If you provide full installation log from autodeploy script (http://pastebin.com/) + output (http://pastebin.com/) from the. command: journalctl -u serviced -a -n 1000, then author can improve autodeploy script eventually.

Devops Monitoring Expert advice: Dockerize/automate/monitor all the things.

I have followed the documentation numerous times, Step 29 is kind of pointless if I can't even get the darn thing installed or running.

Here is the start up attempt of serviced.

Investigate problem with nfs-server (systemctl status nfs-server.service, journalctl -u nfs-server -a -n 1000). Which version of OS are you using I know that RHEL 7.1 has some problem with NFS (RHEL 7.0 is OK).

You don't have problem "Zenoss5 auto deploy doesn't work", but you have "Failed to start NFS server and services" problem.
Solve NFS issue and it should be OK.
I don't how, but you you are not alone - see google "rpc.nfsd: writing fd to kernel failed: errno 111 (Connection refused)"

Try latest version of autdeploy script. Workaround for rpcbind is included.

Thanks Jan,
For some reason there was a stale instance of rpcbind running and not allowing the daemon to fireup, killed that one and restarted, now is working.
