Proliant DL 385 and scsi SNMP

[Christian Charette]

I'm trying to get my box to spit out SNMP traps when I have HDD failure, but I'm having difficulties. Anyone have experience with SuSE 9 and the HP hpasm package?

I've installed net-snmp from HP, and install the hpasm package (7.5.1-8 sles9 x86_64). I get power supply traps ok and fan notifications if I pull one out. But the storage agents are dead on arrival.

Running a /etc/init.d/hpasm status, I get the following:

[root@mp-03 /]>> /etc/init.d/hpasm status
hpasmd is running...
Status of Foundation Agents (cmafdtn): cmathreshd cmahostd cmapeerd
cmathreshd is running...
cmahostd is running...
cmapeerd is running...
Status of Server Agents (cmasvr): cmastdeqd cmahealthd cmaperfd
cmastdeqd is running...
cmahealthd is running...
cmaperfd is running...
Status of Storage Agents (cmastor): cmaeventd cmaidad cmafcad cmaided cmascsid c
masasd
cmaeventd is stopped...
cmaidad is stopped...
cmafcad is stopped...
cmaided is running...
cmascsid is stopped...
cmasasd is stopped...


Ok. So looking at this, my storage agents are stopped. When I reboot, I get segment faults from the console:

cmaidad[5605]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip 0000000000000000 rsp 00000000fff
fdb9c error 14
cmaeventd[5630]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip 0000000000000000 rsp 00000000f
fffd54c error 14
cmafcad[5632]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip 0000000000000000 rsp 00000000fff
fdb0c error 14

When I plug in a monitor to the box, I get different (???) segment fault errors:

cmaeventd[5628] segfault at 0000000000000000 rip 0000000000000000 rsp 000000ffffd54c error 14
cmaidad[5635]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip 0000000000000000 rsp 000000ffffdb9c error 14
cmafcad[5643]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip 0000000000000000 rsp 000000ffffdb0c error 14


These ones are specifically related to storage agents.

Any ideas?

I noticed that it's not the first time segment faults have been found on this driver:

Shalom,

These issues are usually caused by mismatches between the OS and the actual verion of the OS with patches required by the hpasm tool.

There may be more evidence in the /var/log/messages file that will let you know the actual cause of the fault.

You checked the support matrix?
