DL380 and Supportpack for RH8.0

[Bauder, Alexander]

Hi Folks,

while setting up my new DL380 I installed Supportpack for RedHat 8.0 from:http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/10933.html

All seems OK. On next reboot no NFS - Mounts can be done. Output on /var/log/boot.log:

mount: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: unable to receive

trying manually: RPC: Timeout


In my /var/log/messages appears:

May 19 08:30:01 lwesu0017 net-snmp[738]: Connection from udp:127.0.0.1:32771
May 19 08:30:46 lwesu0017 last message repeated 98 times
May 19 08:31:47 lwesu0017 last message repeated 132 times
May 19 08:33:02 lwesu0017 last message repeated 165 times
May 19 08:34:03 lwesu0017 last message repeated 132 times

and so on...


No other changes are done before, so it might be some part of the Supportpack. I suspect the HW Monitoring tool. Why ? - I got mails who told me, the redundancy of my Fans got lost. But all fans are working...... ( on every reboot)

Help is solicited

Hi Alex,
1)NFS,
try to check rpc services,
rpcinfo -p
if rpc.mountd is running.
Have you started portmaper, nfs, nfslock, netfs?
2)HW
Have you checked HW logs?

Hey Frantisek,

I checked the rpcinfo, all seems OK ( no differ to another machine who all works fine )...

# rpcinfo -p

I attached my /var/log/messages. At time 08.02.44 you can see the mont - errors.

Ugly, first the kernel don??t know my HDDs, but I think that??s OK because the raid "virtualizes" them....

HW is OK, I installed RH and the supportpack again, the same behavior...

Greethings,

Alex

Regarding: "...net-snmp[738]: Connection from udp:127.0.0.1:32771..."

I believe refers to the below listed security vulnerability associated with denial of service attacks:

https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2002-228.html

Regarding: "...Can't locate module block-major-105
..."

This is a problem with the block devices. The O/S may believe they no longer exist. Check your .config file or re-run "make menuconfig" and re-compile. You may be able to ignore them. Note this link:

Hey Michael,

installed new snmp - rpms, but no change appears...

Has someone another idea?
