Hi,

I am a kid on vPar. One of my box is keep on alerting the titled error. How do I rectify it? Is it related to efi hardware path ?

Appreciate your valuable helps.

Thanks

Can I do vparefiutil -u ??
Is there any issue to apply this cammand ?

Where do you receive this error ? or do you get this error whenever vpastatus is executed ??

As far as vparefiutil is concerned, I don't think it is related to the error message.

I think that incorrect (Illegal) HW path has been assigned to the vpar, which actually doesn't exist. Could you please collect the list of the LBAs assigned to all the Vpars and check if they really exist?

Whats the server model so you can get the list of hw paths/ LBA for that server, serach for the block diagram and I m sure u will get one.

It's a superdom box. It had a reboot on the last weekend. After rebooting, OVO is sending alert as on the title. But I couldn't find any errors on syslog or anywhere.

Was it a normal reboot??

If it was not a normal one there could be some hardware issue.

Yeah. It was a scheduled reboot. But parstatus and vparstatus commad doesn't return any errors.

Thanks guys.

It was actually the script error.
