HP Insight Control for Linux 6.0 Release Notes

• The following items are missing from Section 23.18, Troubleshooting server power control
problems
Corrective actionsCause/Symptom
Powering on the server a second time causes it to boot
normally, and this problem will not reoccur.
Power cycle after SIM discovery starts bare metal
discovery
A server that is set to PXE boot all the time might not
boot properly after it is discovered with the
Options→Discovery... tool.
Instead of booting, the server undergoes a bare metal
discovery process and powers down. This occurs only
once per server.
Rerun Options→Identify systems... to fully discover
the iLO.
Intermittent power on, power off, and reset server
errors
Intermittent power on, power off, or reset server errors
might occur during an Insight Control for Linux
operation (for example, during an OS installation,
image capture, or image deployment).
Checking to see if power is on.
Failed: Error retrieving BMC for server. Root
cause:PANIC: BMC Manager
not configured for device of this type.
IP address of server causing this problem is
venus.example.com.
Attempting to power down via management
processor Unable to
communicate with the management processor:
Unable to power off system.
Root cause:PANIC: BMC Manager not configured
for device of this type.
IP address of server causing this problem is
venus.example.com.
This situation typically presents itself when the iLO is
not completely discovered. When this occurs, the SIM
presentation of the iLO has a missing IP address or the
subtype of the iLO is not shown.
• The following information is missing from Section 23.19, Troubleshooting
server-to-management processor associations.
During an Insight Control for Linux bare metal discovery operation, the association between
the iLO and its server might not occur. If this happens, the bare metal discovery post
processing task failure during the power down server operation is shown on the Tasks &
Logs→View Task Results... page with the following error message:
Checking to see if power is on.
Failed: Error retrieving BMC for server. Root cause: Could not determine the
BMC associated with the server (0000001b78be9f480000000300000016) in the database.
Probably not discovered yet.
Attempting to power down via management processor
Unable to communicate with the management processor: Unable to power off system.
Root cause:Could not
determine the BMC associated with the server (0000001b78be9f480000000300000016) in the
database.
Probably not discovered yet.
To restore the association, follow this procedure:
1. Run Options→Identify Systems... on the unassociated iLO or iLOs to force SIM to
make the association. Repeat this process until all iLOs have been associated with their
servers.
2. Select the following menu item from the SIM GUI to turn off power to the server or
servers:
Tools→Server Controls→Power Off Server...
