Isilon x410 Nodes - Front Panel Lights

All,

I tested this issue and there is something going on with the alerter. Please open a service request with Technical Support and reference bug 195774. There is a workaround and it is to remove the event ID flags under:

/ifs/.ifsvar/db/celog_analysis/led

Easy command to do all nodes and all events: (This only clears the LED state, your actual CELOG alerts are untouched.)

for i in $(isi_nodes %{id}); do rm -r /ifs/.ifsvar/db/celog_analysis/led/$i/*; done

Note that the led folder is not based on the LNN of the node but rather the node ID, which is unique and never reused.

Hi alandelgado,

Thanks for your information how to resolve this issue.

I have a question.

How can I specify the node ID???

The node ID is specified via the loop by the $i variable. If you wanted to find out the ID of all your nodes, run this command from any node:

isi_nodes %{name} %{lnn} %{id}

Then you will see the ID to LNN mapping and choose appropriately. For example:

root@cluster1-1:~# isi_nodes %{name} %{lnn} %{id}

cluster1-1 1 1

cluster1-2 2 2

cluster1-3 3 3

cluster1-4 4 4

cluster1-5 5 5

cluster1-6 6 6

cluster1-7 7 7

cluster1-8 8 8

cluster1-9 9 9

cluster1-10 10 10

cluster1-11 11 11

cluster1-12 12 12

cluster1-13 13 13

cluster1-14 14 14

cluster1-15 15 15

Hi alandelgado,

Thanks for your reply. I got it.

So sounds like patch-197312 released Aug 25 may address this issue? It's only for v8.0.0.4 currently though.  Since posting this issue we have since upgraded to v8.0.0.4 but given how minor this is right now, I'm not going to install it unless another more critical patch comes along that I need.  But then again, I only have 4 nodes to re-seat any time this happens, I might feel differently if I had 100!  If anyone is feeling brave, install this patch and report back the results.

Issue didn't recur for me so far across reboots. But we're on 8.0.0.5

alreasy and "fixed" the lights with the earlier mentioned deletion of

the files. But indeed this patch seems to be a more permanent fix.

Cannot confirm it though

Check my reply on this thread.  It should help you fix the pulse if a node gets into that state.

Re: Front pannel LED - Blue (slowly) blinking_OneFS v8.0.0.3

It seems that there are some improvements made in OneFS 8.0.1.2:

195774 The alert LED on the front panel was lit although there were no unresolved warnings or critical events. This was a CELOG issue because the LED flag file was not being cleared as expected. The front panel alert LED behaved as expected.
