CenteraPing fails. Why?
Hi,
I am currently using the Centera-Ping Tool to test a connection to Centerastar on the internet.
Would you please be so kind to give me a hint (or several hints) why I am experiencing this behaviour of CenterePing:

Hi Adrian,
I just tested the cluster with one of the PEA files you used and it seems to be responding for all but 1 access node. The one access node might be having some connectivity issues:
C:\CenteraPing.exe -address 128.221.200.60,128.221.200.61,128.221.200.62,128.221.200.63?C:\us2_profile3_rdqeDcw.pea
128.221.200.60?C:\us2_profile3_rdqeDcw.pea is accessible
128.221.200.61?C:\us2_profile3_rdqeDcw.pea is accessible
128.221.200.62?C:\us2_profile3_rdqeDcw.pea is not accessible
SDK Error :-10020
SDK Error Message :no primary cluster found
128.221.200.63?C:\us2_profile3_rdqeDcw.pea is accessible
Are you behind a firewall that is preventing you to access the online clusters?
Thanks,
Zeeshan

Hi Zheshaan,
Many thanks. So my assumption seems to be correct: The firewall is most probably blocking us. We have requested to open the firewall from our firewall team, they have opened the firewall but it still doesnt work. Here is the request we used:
Source (hostname and/or IP)
Destination (hostname and/or IP)
Destination
Port #
System
(internal source hostname and ip)
128.221.200.60
128.221.200.61
128.221.200.62
128.221.200.63
Port 3218 (TCP/UDP)
Internet Firewall
Is there any additional information I should add about the EMC protocol what seems to be missing?
Best regards
Adrian

Exactely. Thank you!
The hardest part is to find out how the INBOUND traffic actually comes in (from Centerastart to CenteraSDK). Is it UDP? TCP? Which port?I could not find any description of that on the EMC website.
Can you help?

You need to tell your network security folks to open up the firewall for both inbound and outbound traffic so that you are able to send and receive requests.

Cluster probes use UDP in both directions. Other operations use TCP.
So you must open port 3218 inbound and outbound for both TCP and UDP.
