Hi Vinny,

Please run the below commands:

# cluster start all

If the above command does not work, try the below on all nodes in the cluster individually:

# genesis start
OR
# genesis restart


Then try running the below command from one of the nodes:

# cluster start all

Please let me know if that helps.

Genesis should be started on the nodes in order to create the cluster. You'll want to determine what is in the genesis.out file to see why genesis is not starting. From that CVM, cd to ~/data/logs and enter 'tail -f genesis.out'. Once you have the messages in that log, post to here and we can take a look. That log will constantly overwrite itself as genesis crashes and tries to restart; the tail -f will allow messages to scroll on the console.
