Hello,

I am working for the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research where we 
have a 4 nodes-3PB cluster.

The cluster was installed manually but I am trying to use the toolkit to 
upgrade.
During the precheck phase, launched with ./spectrumscale upgrade 
precheck, there is an error on all 4 nodes saying

FAILED! => {"msg": "The task includes an option with an undefined 
variable. The error was: 'scale_nfs_url' is undefined\n\nThe error 
appears to be in 
'/usr/lpp/mmfs/5.1.9.2/ansible-toolkit/ansible/upgrade_sample/playbook_repo_create.yml': 
line 455, column 11, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the 
exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n\n 
        - name: upgrade | configure nfs YUM repository\n   ^ here\n"}

Has anyone seen something like that before and/or knows where it could 
come from ?

Thanks in advance

Paul
