dictum9 — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 12:58:21 GMT

Any idea what this means?
latest version of Ignite on Ita 11.31 server.

WARNING: Warning: untrusted X11 forwarding setup failed: xauth key data not

Please post the output of

var/adm/sw/swagentd.log

From a2opv

Also check if you are having /etc/nsswitch.conf file

If not,

# cp /etc/nsswitch.files /etc/nsswitch.conf

tail -f /var/adm/sw/swagentd.log

Are the following command given

# swlist

Also did you
cp /etc/nsswitch.files /etc/nsswitch.conf

Also check if the host file is having

/etc/hosts

127.0.0.1 localhost loopback

I think I begin to understand what went wrong - I have no problems adding other clients, but have issues with this one client, which I previously tried to boot via network. I cannot add this one specific client.

"I think I begin to understand what went wrong"

Did you find the issue ?? Or does the issue still persist..

Re: Error adding a client for recovery:

Nope, still the problem exists. I cannot add this one specific client. Others I can. This one I cannot add was tried to boot off the Ignite server via network. Something remains on it that prevents it being added as a client.

Is it possible for you to post last 100 lines of /var/adm/sw/swagentd.log

Its a strange issue while adding the client via Ignite

Could you post the output of

# nslookup

Please have a check on this.

http://docs.hp.com/en/IUX/faq.html#11-18

11-18 Why am I getting this message: Warning: untrusted X11 forwarding setup failed?
A: If you try to initiate a recovery session on a client from the Ignite-UX server GUI and you see the following warning:
Warning: untrusted X11 forwarding setup failed: xauth key data not
generatedWarning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for
X11 forwarding.check the setting of the "ForwardX11Trusted" variable in /opt/ssh/etc/ssh_config on the server. If it is "no," try setting it to "yes."

nslookup is fine.

I used remsh and it omitted the X11 error.

The only thing in swagentd.log file is this:

ERROR: Access denied to root@a2nnmi.hns.com to start agent on
unregistered depot "/var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds". No
(i)nsert permission on host. 03/09/09 14:27:54 EDT

Re: Error adding a client for recovery:

swagentd -r
hasn't helped.

I did register the depot and now got this error:

ERROR: ERROR: Could not apply the software selection "IUX-Recovery"; it is
not available from depot or root
"a2opv:/var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds".ERROR: No software has
been selected.ERROR: Cannot continue the "swinstall" task.
