second network archive not working.

Sachin Patel — Tue, 09 Sep 2003 14:06:04 GMT

Hi
I have install ignite server on one of my hp system and created few network recover archive. Now I am trying to create network recovery archive again for same system (to make sure archive is latest) it fails.

It asked me bunch of question at the end ask me
"do you want to create a network system archive for system sys1 now?" when I press yes
I got following window.

"Swinstall(1M) faild to install recoveery tools from:
fosters:/var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds
Warning: Failed creating symlink from clients lanic id to clients hostname
file exists (errorno = 17)
Warning: could not open client status file
/var/opt/ignite/revovery/client_mnt/0x0060B0B204AF/recovery/client_status: permission denied (errorno = 13).

----- and some more permission problems.

/var/opt/ignite is full open
drwxrwxrwx 11 bin bin 1024 Mar 24 10:00 ignite

What is wrong here?

Possible patch that applies:

Ignite-UX make_medialif patch PHSS_27407

and also, i would check the permissions of
/var/opt/ignite/recovery
/var/opt/ignite/revovery/client_mnt
/var/opt/ignite/revovery/client_mnt/0x0060B0B204AF
/var/opt/ignite/revovery/client_mnt/0x0060B0B204AF/recovery
/var/opt/ignite/revovery/client_mnt/0x0060B0B204AF/recovery/client_status

Try removing the client on the server and then adding it back in.

If it refused to add, you may need to boot the client off the server and pull the latest version of Ignite to it.

If the client is important back it up to tape with make_tape_recovery prior to following this advice.

At the client:
Boot from console

Interupt at the 10 second prompt

bo lan.ip_of_ignite_server install

See what happens.

Watch the /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log file on the server. You will get helpful information as to why it fails, if it does.

I can't reboot the client. I will try to delete its image from ignite server. I have just reinstall the server but I will check about patch. although it lets me create another clients image only this particular client has problem.

I remove the client and I remove all the ignite package from client as well.

now when I try to create new network archive I gets following message.

"
nfs mount: bindresvport: t_errno = 23
nfs mount: get_fh: Couldn't bind to a reserverd port. return = -1
nfs mount: retry: backgrounding: /var/opt/ignite/client.mnt

Nothing was working so I finally remove ignite from server and install it again. It is working now.
