Adding new storage

glynch

I am trying to add another v7000 to be monitored. Do I have to generate a new SSH key?

Pavel

Hi,

no, use the one you have already generated.

glynch

Thanks. That's what I thought. I am moving a v7000 from an old stor2rrd server to a new virtual appliance. I uploaded the existing key and changed the key for the lpar2rrd user to the new key. When I try to run lssystem, it tells me that the private key is not valid for the user name

Pavel

have you copied even the private key?
you have to copy over whole .ssh directory and keep file rights (lpar2rrd owner and 600 for most of files include .ssh dir)

No I didn't copy that over to the new server because I already have another V7000 set up on there. I just want to bring the second V7000 over.

Pavel

it should work, try to repeat the procedure, looks like wrong key you have pasted

ls -l ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub superuser@<storage IP>:/tmp/123tmp
ssh superuser@<storage IP> "svctask chuser -keyfile /tmp/123tmp lpar2rrd"
ssh lpar2rrd@<storage IP>  "lscurrentuser"
 

glynch

Now I can even copy the key over, I get the same error

glynch

I removed the user from the v7000 and started from scratch. It seems to have worked now. Thanks for your help
