Server with Quadrics interconnect may fail to boot 9–5
When the configure system command attempted to add this route, the command failed and returned the
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
message. This failure occurred because a route to this network
already existed, as is shown in the output from the following command (run on the administration server):
# netstat -nr
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
10.128.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
If this happens, you must reconfigure the static routes; see Section 7.1 for information on how to reconfigure
the static routes.
When you are specifying a static route, please ensure that the following conditions are met:
• A route to the network does not already exist.
• The netmask you choose is appropriate for the network.
• The gateway node is up and is on the same network as the device being configured with the static
route.
9.7 Server with Quadrics interconnect may fail to boot
Occasionally, a server in an HP SFS system where a Quadrics interconnect is present may fail to boot due
to a problem with the interconnect card. You can determine whether this problem has occurred by
observing, from the virtual serial port of the iLO, the output from the server while the server is booting. If no
further output is returned after the following, the problem has occurred:
Starting qsnet [
To resolve the boot problem, reset the node as follows. In this example,
south3
is the server that failed to
boot:
1. Enter the command shown in the following example:
# hpls_pwr --server "south3" reset
2. Wait for 15 seconds, then enter the following command:
# hpls_pwr --server "south3" off
3. Detach the interconnect cable from the server, and then attach it again.
4. Boot the server from the SFS CLI, as follows:
sfs> boot server south3
The server will now boot normally.
9.8 The scan mac command fails
If the
scan mac
command fails to find the MAC address of a server, you must identify the address and
enter it into the database manually, as follows:
1. Verify that the iLO component on the server is configured as specified in Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 of
the HP StorageWorks Scalable File Share System Installation and Upgrade Guide, and that the iLO
firmware is at the correct version (as specified in the HP StorageWorks Scalable File Share Release
Notes).
If you make any changes, enter the
scan mac server_name
command again.
2. If the command fails again, power cycle the server by entering the following command:
# hpls_pwr --server server_name reset
