Symptoms
A node's front panel LED does not deactivate itself after an event group has resolved itself.
The event group shows as ended in WebUI or isi event list, but the LED remains amber on a node's front panel.
This issue can occur on the following versions of OneFS:
- OneFS 8.0.0.0 through 8.0.0.6
- OneFS 8.0.1.0 through 8.0.1.2
- OneFS 8.1.0.0 through 8.1.0.2
- OneFS 8.1.1.0
Cause
A problem in the CELOG service causes this issue. This issue will be fixed in a future release.
Resolution
When this issue is resolved, it will be noted in the OneFS release notes for the 8.0.0, 8.0.1, 8.1.0 and 8.1.1 release families.
To work around this issue, you can run this one-line for loop on the cluster’s console, as root, to deactivate the LED:
for i in $(isi_nodes %{id}); do rm -r /ifs/.ifsvar/db/celog_analysis/led/$i/*; done
