Connection to Onboard Administratior of Primary Enclosure is lost

[n.price]

Has anyone seen this before?

While connected through the CLI interface;

Connection to Onboard Administrator of Primary Enclosure is lost.
OA User Name :
OA Password :
Authenticating OA credentials. Please wait...

ERROR: ERROR: : Access denied : User authentication failed. Please make sure
your OA credentials are correct->

VC firmware is 2.01 and OA firmware is 2.41.

Putting in the right credentials yields the "ERROR: ERROR:..." message.

Forgot to mention, this is while connected to the virtual connect CLI, not the onboard administrator.

Also, if I am connected to the onboard administrator CLI and run "Show VCMode" it says "disabled"

How are you actually connecting to the VC cli? Are you connecting to the active VC-Ethernet (in interconnect bay 1 or 2).
Do you have VC configured at this point?

Mark,

Tried removing both OAs to no avail. Can't remove the virtual connect units without doing a shutdown, can't do a shutdown until I can schedule a shutdown of the production systems running on them.

Terri Harris;

Yes, VCs are all configured. System was previously working but since replacing both OAs due to hardware failures, the OA seems to have lost the connection to the virtual connect domain.
