Vios lpar moved to removed

iksior

Hello

after some configuration with ssh and restart sshd service , 2 vios lpars were moved to removed lpar in menu tree. No more statistics for them.

How to bring them back ?

Hi,

we have upgraded , but still the same

There might be a problem with vio_daemon stuck or not communicating with HMC (which unfortunately impacts all vioses):

  https://forum.xorux.com/discussion/comment/3450#Comment_3450

  https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/629995

 It can be also related to resolving the vioses hostname/s, dns.

 also this might help:

 Please, follow point 2. from the below IBM Tech Note to stop and start the vio daemon:

  https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/when-using-hmc-gui-you-see-message-unable-connect-database-error-occurred

basically would be enough start or restart vio_daemon:

under root:

 ls -l /usr/ios/db/bin/solid*

 ps -ef | egrep "vio_daemon|solid|db"

 lssrc -ls vio_daemon

 stopsrc -s vio_daemon

 startsrc -s vio_daemon

 sleep 10

 ps -ef | egrep "vio_daemon|solid|db"

 lssrc -ls vio_daemon

 when you go to UI --> IBM Power --> RMC check, is that VIOS listed there?

hello

i discovered that we had issue described here

https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/when-using-hmc-gui-you-see-message-unable-connect-database-error-occurred

so after running script cleanup_cmdb_with_logging.sh and next load.sh it works correctly.

thanks

Pavel

great, thanks for letting us know!
