cmquerycl is unable to gather configuration information

[Darius Shafie]

I run the following command on one of my nodes and get the following message; the node I am running this command on is named hp9000:

# cmquerycl -v -C /etc/cmcluster/lpcluster.config -n hp9000

Begin checking the nodes...
Looking for other clusters ... Done
Error: Unable to establish communication to node hp9000
Failed to gather configuration information.

I have double checked both my hosts file and my cmclconfig.ascii files and the node names are all lowercase. Can anyone tell me why and how this could be happening.

Hi Darius,

I would suggest you to look into /etc/inetd.conf check for the below mentioned entries which
makes cluster nodes able to see other nodes:


hacl-cfg dgram udp wait root /usr/lbin/cmclconfd cmclconfd -p
hacl-cfg stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/cmclconfd cmclconfd -c
hacl-probe stream tcp nowait
root /opt/cmom/lbin/cmomd /opt/cmom/lbin/cmomd -f /var/opt/cmom/cmomd.log

After adding the above entries, both of the nodes should be able to communicate with
each other.

Note: For the above error, check /etc/services and
/etc/inetd.conf files first for necessary entries of cluster daemons.

Best Regards,
Prashanth

at first check what is reporting in syslog files from both nodes. That should tell you the reason.

check /etc/cmcluster.conf

compare the hacl & ident entries on /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf
check ident .

check cmclnodelist/~home/.rhosts file

Verify log files to get the clue.
#vi /etc/cmcluster//pkg.ctl.log
# vi /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log

I followed the above mentioned suggestions, and all looked as it should. Later while using SAM on one system I saw that the name of hp9000 was all in caps in SAM. I checked all my config files but the name was in lower case. I used SAM to change the name of the system to lower case and that resolved the cmquerycl error.

Thanks everyone.

I used SAM to fix the case in the system name and this solved the issue.
