VirtualConnect/How to enable disabled port caused by loop protected

by 스쳐가는인연 2015. 4. 7.

Symptom:
1. 특정 서버의 NIC 중 일부(혹은 다수/전체) 포트가 통신 불가 상태로 확인됨
2. OA상에서 VC의 상태가 Degraded(성능저하) 상태로 확인되나, 다른 서버들의 통신 상태는 정상

3. VC의 "show all *" 로그를 확인하니, 특정 서버의 포트에서 loop-Protected Error가 확인됨.


이러한 경우, 해당 서버의 포트로 부터 loop 와 같은 Packet Storm 현상이 유발되었다고 판단할 수 있으며, VC Domain의 안정적인 통신을 유지하기 위해 VC에서 해당 요인/유발 서버의 포트를 비활성화한 것이다. (명확한 확인은 고객지원센터를 통해 확인하자)

Action Plan 1.
What: Reset Protection
Why : VC degraded 상태 해소를 위해
1. OA에서 Device Bay 4 Reset
a. Shut down the server in DB #4.
b. Log in to Onboard Administrator with Administrator privileges using the OA CLI.
c. Enter the command reset server x, where [x=bay number].
   OA # > reset server 4
d. Confirm that the user wants to reset the server blade.

2. Re-enable the disabled ports on the VC interconnect modules using one of the following methods:
    Use the "reset loop-protect" CLI command.
    VC # > reset loop-protect
