Also I've opened a ticket with the Compressor team.

A little more detailed for those interested:

I have power cycled all of my machines, the cluster controller and the render nodes. Now, I get a slightly different error message, but the same result. Here is the message:

"Error occurred while creating new cluster: SwampDaemon::NFSPublisher: authorization has expired"

Also, occasionally, when attempting to build the cluster, I get this message:

"The controller cannot be reached. Please try later."

This is odd because the controller IS the same machine. So, there should be no network issue.

Also, per the screen capture linked below, when selected, the cluster shows:

Storage: "Info Not Available"

I am not sure if that appliues, but it seems odd.

Here is a video capture of the process at work.

I will post the final resolution here, if/when we have one.

This issue was resolved. For detail (and a lot of it) on how we sorted it out, check the link on Creative Cow.
