• If the network is experiencing inconsistencies or an outage, the wizard can fail to add the
power source. Typically, a network outage lasts only a few minutes. Relaunch the wizard, go
to the File Servers page, and click Next to try to add the power source again.
If the operation continues to fail, QR the system again and retry the operation.
Bond creation fails with “Error: Fetching bond details”
Probable cause:
• The bond0 device is not present on the server.
• The operation to get the bond details failed.
Troubleshooting steps:
• Use the ifconfig bond0 command to check for bond0. If the bond is not present, restart
the discovery service:
service ibrix_discovery restart
• If restarting the discovery service fails, run the /opt/hp/platform/bin/hpsp_srvid
script and verify that the system type is not X9720. The installation does not support X9720
systems.
• The discovery service does not create the bond if network configurations already exist on
eth0. If network settings exist on the eth0 port, remove the network configuration and then
restart the discovery service.
• Check the value of the LISTENER_BONDED_INTERFACE entry in the /usr/local/ibrix/
bin/listener.conf file. If it is not bond0, edit the file, setting the value for
LISTENER_BONDED_INTERFACE to bond0, and then restart the discovery service:
service ibrix_discovery restart
• If the previous step fails to create the bond0 interface, either use the text-based installation
method to perform the network settings or create the bond interface on the server using the
following command:
/usr/local/ibrix/autocfg/bin/create_bonds -d 0 <Bond Mode> bond0
<eth port(s)>
Restart the discovery application. To determine values for the bond mode and Ethernet ports,
contact HP Support or your network administrator, or follow these steps:
◦ On X9730 systems, create the bond on internal NIC ports.
◦ On X9300/X9320 systems, create the bond on external NIC ports. To detect the external
NIC ports connected to the server, run the following command to list all available NIC
ports:
ip add| grep eth
Run the following command to list only internal NIC ports:
dmidecode | grep "MAC address”
The external NIC ports appear on the ipadd output but not on the dmidecode output.
