------------------------------------------------------------
WARNING - Total swap memory inconsistent across the ECS rack
------------------------------------------------------------
Node      = Nodes
Extra     = {'Nodes': {'16383': ['169.254.1.8', '169.254.1.7', '169.254.1.6', '169.254.1.4', '169.254.1.3', '169.254.1.2', '169.254.1.1'], '8191': ['169.254.1.5']}}
Timestamp = 2022-12-01_145111
PSNT      = CKM00190800120 @ 4.8-87.0

Cause

  • Efter en nodegenstart blev SWAP-konfigurationen ikke gemt i /etc/fstab.
  • Den oprindelige SWAP-partition blev ikke indlæst ved opstart.
  • Noden blev genafbildet, og SWAP blev ikke anvendt på noden.
  • Mere SWAP blev aldrig anvendt på en klynge, der havde en udvidelse. 
  1. Bekræft, om der er SWAP-konsistens på alle noderne.
Bemærk: Vi kan se, at outputtet nedenfor viser, at Rack 1-node 1 med kun 8G i SWAP ikke matcher klyngen.


Kommando:

# doit free -m | grep Swap

Eksempel:

admin@ecsnode1:~> svc_exec 'free -m | grep Swap'
svc_exec v1.0.4 (svc_tools v2.8.0)                 Started 2022-11-30 22:15:56

  1. Bekræft, om /etc/fstab er opdateret til at bruge yderligere 8 GB SWAP på noden, og om den oprindelige SWAP-partitionspost findes.

Kommando:

# svc_exec 'grep swap /etc/fstab'

Eksempel:

admin@ecsnode1:~> svc_exec 'grep swap /etc/fstab'
svc_exec v1.0.4 (svc_tools v2.8.0)                 Started 2022-11-30 22:19:21

Output from node: r1n1                                retval: 0

Output from node: r1n7                                retval: 0

  1. Kontrollér, om SWAP-filen findes på alle noder.
Kommando: 
# svc_exec 'ls -lh /swapfile'
Eksempel:
admin@ecsnode1:~> svc_exec 'ls -lh /swapfile'
svc_exec v1.0.4 (svc_tools v2.8.0)                 Started 2022-11-30 22:26:48

Output from node: r1n1                                retval: 0
ls: cannot access '/swapfile': No such file or directory

Output from node: r1n2                                retval: 0
-rw------- 1 root root 8.0G Feb 11  2022 /swapfile

Output from node: r1n3                                retval: 0
-rw------- 1 root root 8.0G Feb 11  2022 /swapfile

Output from node: r1n4                                retval: 0
-rw------- 1 root root 8.0G Feb 11  2022 /swapfile

Output from node: r1n5                                retval: 0
-rw------- 1 root root 8.0G Feb 11  2022 /swapfile

Output from node: r1n6                                retval: 0
-rw------- 1 root root 8.0G Feb 11  2022 /swapfile

Output from node: r1n7                                retval: 0
-rw------- 1 root root 8.0G Feb 11  2022 /swapfile

Output from node: r1n8                                retval: 0

Resolution

VIGTIGT! En ny funktion er blevet frigivet i xDoctor 4-8.104.0 og derover. Denne vidensbase (KB) er nu automatiseret med xDoctor AutoPilot, der løser de fleste problemer uden behov for supportinvolvering.

Denne funktion er hjemmehørende i xDoctor 4-8.104.0 og nyere, for syntaks- og brugsproblemer henvises til ECS: ObjectScale: Sådan køres KB-automatiseringsscripts (autopilot).(kan kræve login på Dell Support) 
 

  1. Kør automatiseringskommandoen fra en primær node med xDoctor 4-8.104.0 og derover.
    Seddel: --target-node, --target-rack and --target-vdc understøttes for dette script.
Kommando: 
# sudo xdoctor autopilot --kb 205933 --target-node <NAN IP>
# sudo xdoctor autopilot --kb 205933 --target-rack <Rack Name>
# sudo xdoctor autopilot --kb 205933 --target-vdc <VDC Name>
Eksempel:
admin@ecsnode1:~> sudo xdoctor autopilot --kb 205933 --target-node 169.254.1.1
Checking for existing screen sessions...
Starting screen session 'autopilot_kb_205933_20250627_212503'...
Screen session 'autopilot_kb_205933_20250627_212503' started successfully.
Attaching to screen session 'autopilot_kb_205933_20250627_212503'...

 

  1. Gennemgå en oversigt over de handlinger, der er udført.

Eksempel:

TASK [Summary for SWAP and fstab issues addressed] *********************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [169.254.1.7] => {
    "msg": [
        "************************************************************************************************************************************************",
        "************************************************************************************************************************************************",
        " An 8GB swap file was created and configured as /swapfile with swap enabled. ",
        " fstab was updated with entries for /swapfile, and a backup prior to the change was created in: /etc/fstab.28734.2024-08-28@19:44:38~. ",
        " No duplicate entries were found in fstab. ",
        "************************************************************************************************************************************************",
        "************************************************************************************************************************************************"
    ]
}

 

  1. Bekræft for at opdatere MOTD med udskiftningsoplysninger og de anvendte ændringer.
    Seddel: Hvis din nuværende MOTD indeholder KB-nummeret eller ordet /swapfile, opdateres MOTD ikke.

Kommando:

# yes or no

Eksempel:

The next steps are to detect keywords in the MOTD content and update the MOTD with custom content for the KB specifics. IMPORTANT! You will need customer permission to do this action for the KB. Would you like to proceed with the steps by typing 'Yes' or 'Y', or skip the MOTD update actions by typing 'No' or 'N':
: y
  1. Gennemgå MOTD-ændringsoversigt for at tilføje nyt MOTD-indhold:

Eksempel:

TASK [MOTD summary] ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [169.254.1.7] => {
    "msg": [
        "************************************************************************************************************************************************",
        "New MOTD content:",
        "************************************************************************************************************************************************",
        "************************************************************************************************************************************************",
        [
            "",
"==============================================================================================================================================",
            "2024-08-28 | SR#84955203 | KB 186358 has been applied to this system, adding an 8GB swap file to /swapfile. Please reapply if a node has been reimaged.",
            "=============================================================================================================================================="
        ],
        "************************************************************************************************************************************************",
        "************************************************************************************************************************************************"
    ]
}
