Why RPC failed !!!

This often falls over if you have windows machines infected with the "blaster" worm. Other than that it is normally pretty stable.

I would check it to see if really isn't running "ps -ef | grep rpc" should show you the rpc applications running.

Anyway, you can start it up by going "/sbin/init.d/Rpcd start"

Not sure whether the machine ip/hostname was changed and the swagentd was not made known for the change.

swagentd -r

will fix it!

revert

I have executed the ps-ef | grep rcp command and this is the output:

I think the rpc is started !!

To put more thoughts, Who are you failed occurs when the client is trying to get the endpoint entries for the service. The service endpoints are not listed in the endpoint mapper.

Try restarting the rpc daemons. And also swagentd.
