VPLEX: Se observaron errores de comprobación previa de NDU en los clústeres de VPLEX después de la actualización de código

Resumen: El propósito de este artículo es borrar los errores de comprobación previa de la actualización no disruptiva (NDU) que aparecen en los clústeres de VPLEX después de la actualización del código. ...

Síntomas

Después de la actualización del código de GeoSynchrony a 6.1, ejecute ndu pre-check Comando activado VPlexcli de uno de los clústeres de VPLEX arroja errores. No se encuentran errores cuando la comprobación previa de NDU se ejecuta desde el otro clúster.

Ejemplo: 
 
Desde el clúster 1:
service@<cluster-1>:~> vplexcli
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

VPlexcli:/> ndu pre-check

Warning:
During the NDU process, multiple directors will be offline for a portion of the time.
This is non-disruptive but is dependent on a host-based multipathing solution being
installed, configured, and operating on all connected hosts.

Warning:
Please run the "health-check --full" command to verify that the VPLEX is healthy.

Causa

Después de actualizar a GeoSynchrony 6.1, es posible que falten detalles en el archivo de configuración en el servidor de administración, por lo cual el clúster correspondiente devuelve errores en la salida de la comprobación previa de NDU.

Resolución

Paso 1: Inicie sesión en VPlexcli desde el servidor de administración del clúster 1 y el problema ndu pre-check comando. Los siguientes errores se observan durante la comprobación previa de NDU.

Ejemplo:
 
Desde el clúster 1:
service@<cluster-1>:~> vplexcli
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

VPlexcli:/> ndu pre-check

Warning:
During the NDU process, multiple directors will be offline for a portion of the time.
This is non-disruptive but is dependent on a host-based multipathing solution being
installed, configured, and operating on all connected hosts.

Paso 3: Los dos pasos anteriores confirman que el problema se observa solo en el clúster 1. Cierre ambas sesiones de PuTTY.
Paso 4: Inicie una nueva sesión de PuTTY en el servidor de administración del clúster 1 con una cuenta de servicio y reinicie los servicios del servidor de administración desde la versión más reciente mgmtServerBackup.tar de NetWorker.
service@<cluster-1> sudo /opt/emc/VPlex/bin/VPlex-MS-backup --restart-services --restore /tmp/mgmtServerBackup-<SERIAL-NUMBER>.tar
Ignore cualquier error que aparezca.
 
Si la solicitud en mgmtServerBackup-<SERIAL_NUMBER>.tar El archivo no está presente en la carpeta /tmp del servidor de administración de VPLEX; se puede obtener del director siguiendo el artículo 119212. Asegúrese de que el mgmtServerBackup.tar se coloca en la carpeta /tmp del servidor de administración.
Paso 5: Reinicie el servidor de administración mediante el comando que se muestra a continuación.
service@<cluster-1> sudo /sbin/reboot
Paso 6: El servidor de administración se reinicia, pero espere de 5 a 10 minutos antes de continuar.
Paso 7: Conéctese al servidor de administración del clúster 1 e inicie sesión en VPlexcli. Problema ndu pre-check De nuevo para confirmar que los errores ya no están presentes.

Ejemplo:

Desde el clúster 1:
service@<cluster-1>:~> vplexcli
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
