cmcheckconf error message

Daniel Fourie — Wed, 21 Jan 2004 04:28:03 GMT

Hi

I have a MC/ServiceGuard 11.15.00 cluster running on HP-UX11i.

Problem:
If I run cmcheckconf on node A in the cluster it goes thru fine, but if I run it on node B it tells me the following.

Unknown keyword (LOCAL_LAN_FAILOVER_ALLOWED)

Note: Both systems A and B are patched the same.

Thanks

Regards

I would suggest you verify the version for Serviceguard by doing the following on BOTH nodes, and posting it here:
what /usr/lbin/cmcld

LOCAL_LAN_FAILOVER_ALLOWED is a newer keyword replacing obsolete NET_SWITCHING_ENABLED.

Hi,
Reconfirm 2 things.
1. You are using the same cluster.ascii file on both node A and Node B.
2. Check the ascii file on node B (specially the Node configuration where you define the LAN interfaces and Failover lan interfaces)

Cheers

If i run ( what /usr/lbin/cmcld ) I get the following output on both nodes.

/usr/lbin/cmcld:
HP92453-02A.11.00 HP-UX SYMBOLIC DEBUGGER (END.O ILP32) $Revision: 75.02 $
Build date: Thu Apr 3 15:23:02 PST 2003
Build id: ibld_sgops_a1115
Build platform: hpux
A.11.15.00 Date: 04/03/03
Daemon
Cluster Monitor Product $Revision: 82.2 $
Cluster Monitor Product Only $Revision: 82.2 $

The ascii file on both nodes is the same and the node's entry is as follows.

NODE_NAME nnoc-f7
NETWORK_INTERFACE lan0
HEARTBEAT_IP 1.1.1.9
NETWORK_INTERFACE lan1
STATIONARY_IP 196.1.80.41
NETWORK_INTERFACE lan2

ifconfig:

lan0: flags=843
inet 1.1.1.9 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 1.1.1.255
lan1: flags=843
inet 196.1.80.41 netmask fffffff0 broadcast 196.1.80.47
lan2: flags=842
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0

Note: The node I am trying to add the package to already participate in the cluster, I just need to configure a package.

you do not have SG patched, that is my first recommendation.
I assume you are using the same command line on both nodes, please post it here.
Also do whence cmcheckonf to make sure you are using the correct command.

Failing that, I suggest you log a call with your local HP Response Centre.

Have you remembered to distribute the configuration files to all the nodes?

with ifconfig command the lan2 status is showing as not up, can you verify lan2 status again. I believe that is HB2.
