Troubleshoot LCM update
The following is a list of LCM known behaviors. See the Nutanix portal for additional information.
Inventory failure
About this task
Dell EMC recommends stopping the Foundation Service that is still running. Not doing so can cause inventory to fail. If you find
the Foundation Service is running, from a shell, run the following command:
genesis stop foundation
LCM update failure
Running Nutanix Foundation Service causes the LCM to fail.
This behavior is expected as the LCM process should not be run during a cluster expansion.
Action required for updates in Power cycle host
This is a pre-warning, which is cosmetic and gives you information that a reboot is needed before applying these updates. No
customer interaction is required.
Scratch partition errors
Full scratch partitions on the ESXi Hypervisor can cause Inventory performance issues. For more information see, VMware
article about the scratch partition. And scratch partition must be on persistent storage. Persistent storage is needed for proper
LCM operation.
