Re: hpvmsg_package does not configure the HPVM multi-server environment at 4.2

hpvmsg_package does not configure the HPVM multi-server environment at 4.2

I have a rx7640 that I am using to test VM migration and serviceguard

 

I configured a SG Cluster

I configured a VM with migration working between the two systems

 

at version 4.1 I just ran hpvmsg_package and it configured the Multi Server package

 

Now at 4.2 I get the following error  any suggestions are appreciated

 

 

root@rx76u3ad (vmh-0)   [/root]
# /opt/cmcluster/toolkit/hpvm/hpvmsg_package   -P vm3

This is the HP Virtual Machine Serviceguard Toolkit package creation
script.

This script will assist the user to develop and manage a set of
Serviceguard package configuration and associated toolkit template
files.

The templates generated by these scripts will handle many guest
configurations, but they are only templates and may not be
appropriate for your particular configuration needs. You are
encouraged to review and modify these template files, as needed,
for your particular environment.


Do you wish to continue? (y/n):y

Package the Virtual Machine Summarized above? (y/n):y

Checking the virtual machine and cluster configuration

Analysis of the hpvmstatus -m command on each node indicates that the
HPVM multi-server environment is not configured correctly.  Before
hpvmsg_package can assist in creating the package configuration template files
the HPVM multi-server environment must be configured.

Configure Serviceguard nodes into the HPVM multi-server environment now? (y/n):y

ERROR : hpvmsg_package : The multi-server environment is not configured consistently on each node

Re: hpvmsg_package does not configure the HPVM multi-server environment at 4.2

Bonjour Emil,

 

There is an option with hpvmsg_package (-s) that will try to correct this. First, make a try ...


hpvmsg_package checks consistency of attributes PHYSUUID SERVERADDR SERVERID UUID of each server in the HPVM device management data base (#hpvmdevmgmt -l server) across all of the nodes in the cluster. So carefully examins those values.


For PHYSUUID and UUID you cant get them with :

 

#getconf CS_MACHINE_IDENT
7b2dfa95-c44f-11e0-8dba-3a7d05f725dd

 

#getconf CS_PARTITION_IDENT
7b2dfa95-c44f-11e0-8dba-3a7d05f725dd

 

or :

 

#hpvminfo -S
HPVM Server information
Version: HPVM B.04.30 ccipf opt Tue Jan 11 2011 08h48m13s PST
My partition ident: 7b2dfa95-c44f-11e0-8dba-3a7d05f725dd
My physical ident: 7b2dfa95-c44f-11e0-8dba-3a7d05f725dd

 

Note than on a cell box, UUID and PHYSUUID have different values.

 

Finally check that the HPVM_MSE_GROUP_ENTRY (#hpvmdevmgmt -l env) in the HPVM device database is the same on all the node.

 

If you can't find where is the problem after checking all of that, post, for each node :

 

#hpvminfo -S
#hpvmstatus -m
#hpvmdevmgmt -l env
#hpvmdevmgmt -l server
#cmviewcl
#netstat -in
