library won't get into "ready"-state

Hi guys,

I have a problem with an old STK powderhorn library. I configured it in networker and I also have access to the ACSLS-server. I have a didicated storage node where the drives are zoned to.

I did start ssi -A and mini_el. There is no firewall between these servers.

-> But I can wait forever, library isn't going into the ready-state.

I also tried to run ssi and mini_el from the storage node to which the drives are zoned. That worked for one or two times (library did go into ready-state) but I always had failure messages in the ssi_event.log:

There were no error message inside ssi_event.log when I started it from networker server.

Can anyone help?

JayJay9882,

Firstly make sure the volumes and drives are all online within ACSLS which you have defined for the library – if there is any issue here library will not become ready (as Networker has to know the status of all resources and this can cause issue if there is a hardware problem on a drive for instance).

Then ensure SSI_HOSTNAME is set for the interface/name which the NetWorker server will communicate via TCPIP over the network to the ACSLS server. I noticed in your post this was not used and defaulted to gethostname value which may not have network path to ACSLS server.

Regards,

Bill,

here is what I did:

CSI_HOSTNAME= ; export CSI_HOSTNAME

SSI_HOSTNAME= ; export SSI_HOSTNAME

mini_el&

ssi&

on the networker server. Still not ready. The ssi-log contains this:

01-10-13 15:12:11 SSI[0]:

[ /50011] ONC RPC: csi_init(): Initiation Started

01-10-13 15:12:11 SSI[0]:

[ /50011] ssi, Legato version 2.08 startup

I assume it's right to start ssi and mini_el on the networker server since it is written in the man pages of ssi.
