Symptome

Node is missing from the physical page view (VMK1 is disappearing automatically).

Ursache

CIM agents are disabled on the node.
 

Lösung

  1. Ensure that wbem is enabled: esxcli system wbem get
  2. If wbem is disabled, enable it with the command: esxcli system wbem set enable true
  3. Check if all wbem providers are loaded: localcli system wbem provider list
    [root@node1:] localcli system wbem provider list
    Name              Enabled  Loaded
    ---------------------------------
    sfcb_base         true     true
    vmw_base          true     true
    vmw_dcism         true     true
    vmw_hdr           true     true
    vmw_iodmProvider  true     true
    vmw_kmodule       true     true
    vmw_omc           true     true
    vmw_pci           true     true
  4. If any wbem providers are not loaded, enable CIM agents (sfcbd-watchdog & wsman) using the below commands.
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] chkconfig sfcbd-watchdog
    sfcbd-watchdog          off
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] chkconfig sfcbd-watchdog on
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] /etc/init.d/sfcbd-watchdog status
    sfcbd is not running
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] /etc/init.d/sfcbd-watchdog start
    sfcbd-init: Getting Exclusive access, please wait...
    sfcbd-init: Exclusive access granted.
    sfcbd-init: Request to start sfcbd-watchdog, pid 2111224
    sfcbd-config[2111234]: Configuration not changed, already enabled
    sfcbd-init: starting sfcbd
    sfcbd-init: Waiting for sfcb to start up.
    sfcbd-init: Program started normally.
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] /etc/init.d/sfcbd-watchdog status
    sfcbd is running
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] chkconfig wsman
    wsman                   off
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] /etc/init.d/wsman status
    openwsmand is not running
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] /etc/init.d/wsman start
    openwsmand: Getting Exclusive access, please wait...
    openwsmand: Exclusive access granted.
    openwsmand: Starting openwsmand
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] /etc/init.d/wsman status
    openwsmand is running
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] chkconfig wsman
    wsman                   off
    [root@vxrail-zone2-node-03:/opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin] chkconfig wsman on
  5. Verify vmk1 is created on the node now.
  6. Check the physical page, and the node is healthy.
