cmclconfd error

[anat heilper]

Hi,
I've installed serviceguard 11.16 on hpux 11-23ia
and I receive on one of the nodes the following error on the syslog:
cmclconfd[3028]: Error: Unexpected known command role name specification "file".
this error keeps arriving every few seconds.
cam someone tell me What is this message?
Thanks,
Anat.

See DocID: UMCSGKBRC00017388

Perhaps your file /etc/cmcluster/cmknowncmds contains inpropper entries.

Any control characters in the cmknowncmds file will
cause the error to post into the syslog. Take care
when editing the entry.


regards,
ivan

Have you installed al the required patches?

Hi, in the file /etc/cmcluster/cmknowncmds there is only the following lines:

# This file is required by Serviceguard. Do not modify or remove it.
CMDISKLOCKCHECK $SGSBIN/cmdisklockcheck MONITOR


Regarding the DocId UMCSGKBRC00017388, I can't seem to find it. Is there direct link to it?

Regarding the patches, I don't have any of those patches installed on my nodes but still: I'm using only LVM, and the other node in the cluster doesn't have those errors ( they are exactly with the same version & patches)

A copy of the file is saved in /usr/newconfig/etc/cmcluster/cmknowncmds in case you need to restore it.
Permissions should be:
-r-------- 1 bin bin

Are you using any configuration files from other installations/versions? Perhaps the problem is with your cluster/package configuration files.

What is the date of your "cmknowncmds" file - is there a possibility the cluster was built with a different version of this file, which has changed?

[Carsten Krege]

Your cmknowncmds file is from a SG A.11.18 version! This is nothing that works on a SG A.11.16 cluster, because the binary "cmdisklockcheck" referenced in there does not even exist in SG A.11.16.

You should ask yourself how you got this cmknowncmds file changed on your system, To fix this simply copy the original file over from you other cluster node (or use the file from the newconfig directory like Stephen suggested). For plain SG A.11.16 without SGeRAC I would expect the file to be empty.

Hi the last advice fixed the problem ( I copied the file from the other node)
Thanks
