SGLX serviceguardmanager

Hello.

On the cluster nodes, the space in the /opt directory is rapidly filling up. We analyzed and realized that there are a lot of rest-logs* files in the /opt/hp/cmcluster/serviceguardmanager/rest/logs/ directory.

The contents of all the files are about the same:

2026/02/28 15:36:10,339 [RefreshDaemon] ERROR - [org.apache.log4j::writeLog] 2026-02-28 15:36:10.339 137 [com.hp.utils.CommandUtils] [method :: formNetworkData] [line :: -1] RestException [ex=java.lang.NullPointerException, id=999, additionalMsg=null]

I tried to find the cause of the error and could only understand one thing - an error in receiving network data.

How can I fix this error or disable this service?

Regards, YA.

Hi @yilmazaydin ,
Yes, there may be issue with network. I havn't went through this issue. But I believe the following steps may help you -
a. Run cmviewcl -v to view the cluster and verify
b. Run nwmgr command and verify each network interface and its status
Ex. nwmgr -q -A id=lan0
c. Check the network basics such as name resolution for peers, DNS and NTPs are working.
Ex. nslookup <dnsIP address> or nslookup <peer hostname>
d. Verify the version and network configuration mis-matches on cluster nodes.

@shiva_jr Thank you for respond.

In our case we don`t use the serviceguard manager. Can you help me to disable this feature?

Hi @yilmazaydin ,

As per my understanding, we can't disable the rest logs, but you can do the following to reduce the volume of generating logs-
a. Update the SGLX to A.15.30 or later, it fixes the old bugs on logs.
b. Ensure jetty-sgmgr service to be running state.
c. You can change the rootlogger option from ERROR to someother in log4j file, but the ERROR logs will not be recorded. I have no idea about how to do it.
