PowerFlex 4.x vCenter opgraderes manuelt, før implementeringen er fuldført, hvilket fører til, at implementeringen mislykkes.

Summary: I nogle situationer, hvor et vCenter opgraderes til en højere version uden for den RCM eller IC, der implementeres, midt i en igangværende implementering af ressourcegruppen Beregn kun, kan implementeringsjobbet mislykkes på grund af manglende evne til at tilføje vmnics til den fordelte virtuelle switch (DVS). PowerFlex Manager (PFxM) kan tilføje vmnics til Back-End-produktions-DVS uden problemer i denne situation. ...

Symptoms

Compute only-implementeringen kan ikke fuldføres, da PFxM ikke kan føje vmnics til FE-produktions-DVS. I vcenter.out-loggen i PFxM-installationslogfilerne ser brugeren poster, der ligner:

Cause

Dette kommunikationsproblem opstår, fordi PFxM forventer at kommunikere med en lavere version af vCenter. Som et resultat af dette kommunikerer det ikke korrekt med den højere version.

Resolution

  • Føj vmnics til FE DVS manuelt ved hjælp af vSphere-brugergrænsefladen.
  • Prøv det mislykkede job i PFxM igen.
