Diagnose a create cluster failure (svc_cluster_diag)
This service script is intended to be run in order to help troubleshoot issues that may happen during create cluster, adding an
appliance, or removing an appliance.
This script performs the following functions:
1. Search for a hardware check in the journal.
This step looks for hardware faults that may have happened before the create cluster operation.
2. Run a current hardware check on this system using svc_diag list --icw_hardware.
Running the script shows any hardware issues in the system. This step is useful if the create cluster operation has failed with
the message UNCONFIGURED_FAULTED.
If there is a hardware fault, a create cluster operation cannot be performed. If a fault is detected, the state changes to
UNCONFIGURED_FAULTED and the create cluster operation fails. This check finds the hardware fault.
3. Ask if you want to perform a data collect.
This step is critical after a create cluster operation failure and allows the data to be collected before the log rotation.
This step also allows the user to set an IP for the system. This way the user can use the direct path to the data collect and
the IP address to copy off the data collect from the system.
