swinstall error

[rleon]

I get the following error when I try to install a depot.


"/root/.sw/sessions/swinstall.last".
ERROR: RPC exception: "Connection closed (dce / rpc)" 12/16/09
09:57:26 CST
ERROR: Could not perform the requested operation for "phgp0999:/",
possibly due to a network communications failure or the agent
timing out. Check that the host is still accessible from the
network, and the agent_timeout_minutes option is not set too
low.
* The analysis phase failed for "phgp0999:/".
* Analysis and Execution had errors.


I have checked

/etc/hosts
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/nsswitch.com
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf

I do have glance installed and found this post.

And no luck.

Any ideaS?

Shalom,

Maybe and NFS mount went stale.

Register the depot? swreg -l depot (in the depot)

Restart swagentd

/sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
/sbin/init.d/swagentd start

Hi ..

swreg is comes back fine no errors ..

I have restarted swagentd before and still no luck.

this is not on a depot server it is a local depot file on a local filesytem.

Hi (again):

What does 'uname -r' return?

# uname -r
B.11.11

Just ran

/usr/contrib/bin/check_patches

and looking over the data.

Hi:

You might try adding:

# -x rpc_timeout=9

Also check the nslookup for itself and check file /etc/nsswitch.conf to make sure the server can get itself correctly.
