LRT224 maintenance mode ping problem

I went into "maintenance" and requested a ping to the IP address of WAN/DMZ, setting is load balancing. Since ever I can not stop it from pinging, it does permamently ping the IP address, if it is there or not. I cannot clear the IP in the address field it is always grayed. I even updated the router and restarted it still continues pinging.
If anybody could tell me how to stop it from pingin, i will never use the ping utility anymore.
Thanks a lot and happy new year.

I tried to reproduce this and can't. The LRT always fails to ping itself and even 127.0.0.1 plus only 4 attempts are made.
What other configuration do you have that might account for this?
Please remember to Kudo those that help you.

SCOM 2012 Maintenance Mode PowerShell Script Problems

I've seen other questions about this topic before, but none of them seem to address my specific problem, so I am starting a new thread.
I am writing a script to put a single server (not a group) into maintenance mode.   Here is the command that it ultimately tries to call:
Start-SCOMMaintenanceMode-Instance$Instance-EndTime$EndTime-Reason$Reason-Comment$Comment
So an exmaple would look like this:
Start-SCOMMaintenanceMode -Instance "$Instance -EndTime "02/03/2014 15:26:00" -Reason "PlannedOther" -Comment "Testing Maintenance Mode"
When my script tries to run this command, this is the error message that I get:
Start-SCOMMaintenanceMode : Start time must be before end time for maintenance mode.
Parameter name: startTime
At C:\users\x036036\Desktop\Start-SCOMMaintenanceModeForServer.ps1:143 char:21
+                     Start-SCOMMaintenanceMode -Instance $Instance -EndTime $EndT ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (Microsoft.Syste...anceModeCommand:StartSCMaintenanceModeCommand) [Start-SCOMMaintenance
   Mode], ArgumentOutOfRangeException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ExecutionError,Microsoft.SystemCenter.OperationsManagerV10.Commands.StartSCMaintenanceModeCommand
I've tried to look at Start-SCOMMaintenanceMode help online, but I don't see that "startTime" is a parameter. So what is this error message talking about? What am I missing?

Thanks for your help.   I didn't see your response until just now, but I have been playing around with this all since my last response.   I got it to work. I wish I could pinpoint what exactly I changed to get it to work, but I
feel like I've been changing so much stuff that I'm not sure any more.
Just in case anyone finds it useful, here is the code.

Next, these lines are supposed to check if the server I specified is a management server:

Thanks to the Intellisense pop-up deal, I can see that $MSs does get my two management servers. And I can clearly see that there is a DisplayName column. And I can also see that the $ServerName does match what I put in my command line.   But it doesn't
seem to catch them if they are actually equal to each other. I don't know if it's because there's two Management Servers, and it doesn't know how to compare like that? Any idea? Is there some sort of loop I need to write so that it compares is to the DisplayName
for EACH Management Server it finds? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

FWSM maintenance mode - vlan 1

Hi,
A client has had their FWSM fail, when you try to start the module the switch eventually disables the power to that slot (%C6KPWR-SP-4-DISABLED: power to module in slot 4 set off (Module Failed SCP dnld)). I have turned off diagnostics with 'no diagnostic boot level' and then use 'boot device module 4 cf:1' to bring the FWSM up into maintenance mode. I can then session up from the switch and log in to the FWSM as root.
After inputting all the necessary IP info I can't ping anything on vlan 1 as I would expect, I have set the FWSM as 192.168.1.2 and a FTP/TFTP server as 192.168.1.1
I have removed the firewall vlan groups and tried to put them back with just vlan 1 but this isn't accepted (the reasons are covered in other posts on the forum). What am I doing wrong as the instruction say that vlan 1 is the only vlan that is accessable whilst the FWSM is in maintenance mode.
I can create an int vlan 1 in the switch and ping my ftp server so know that the switchport is set up correctly, I can also see that Po308 is formed and when the module boots I can see the Gi4/xx interfaces come up (FWSM is in slot 4).
Any ideas of what to try next?
............and they aren't covered by maintenance agreements

Recently i met the same problem.
When installing FWSM board on the Catalyst 6509 there is not communication access via vlan1 in the maintenance partition.
Moreover, the FWSM works properly in the aplication partition(cf:4).

All services stuck in maintenance mode

I've got a problem on Solaris 10. All of the enabled inet services are in maintenance mode. rlogin, ftp, telnet, stlisten, xfs, etc, etc - are all in maintenance mode. The inetadm command shows no online services, only disabled and maintenance. I've tried clearing them with svcadm but they won't clear. It won't show any explanation for why.
What could be wrong to cause this?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Randy

Thanks very much for the very helpful suggestions. svcs -xv does not show anything helpful - for the Reason, simply "Restarter gave no explanation". The svc:/network/inetd:default is indeed enabled and healthy.
/var/adm/messages, however, has information that might point to the problem. Regrettably, I don't understand the message and am hoping someone here can enlighten me. For each of the services that is in maintenance mode, these messages appear:
Nov 3 17:59:44 trsun006 inetd[322]: [ID 702911 daemon.error] Property exec for method inetd_start of instance svc:/network/login:rlogin is invalid
Nov 3 17:59:44 trsun006 inetd[322]: [ID 702911 daemon.error] Invalid configuration for instance svc:/network/login:rlogin, placing in maintenance
I don't understand what it means by "Property exec for method inetd_start ... is invalid".
I issued these commands-
[trsun006 27] sbin > inetadm -l rlogin | grep exec
exec="/usr/sbin/in.rlogind"
[trsun006 28] sbin > ls -l /usr/sbin/in.rlogind
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 36372 Jan 22 2005 /usr/sbin/in.rlogind*
How can I debug this problem?

Solaris 10 disk mirror partition goes in maintenance mode at reboot

Hello
I have got solaris 10 installed on a Sun machine with 2 disks mirrorred to each other. There also security toolkit 4.2 installed. Now every time the system reboots and I do a metastat the mirror partitions goes in maintenance mode and I have to individually metasync the mirrors after every reboot.
I guess this due to the security toolkit playing up. Would really appreciate any help to sort this out. The mirrors should automatically resync after system reboot.
Thanks in advance.
Pioneer

Hi yes I did run the metaroot. If I manually metasync its all OK. My problem is the partition does not auto sync after the system boots.
I guess this is someting to do with the security toolkit 4.2 playing up not disabling some services at boot. Have any one faced this issue ?
Many Thanks
Pioneer

Failed to get Monitor - Start Maintenance Mode

Hi,
Am struggling with a problem with Orchestrator R2 apparently not recognising output from a Monitor alert step in a run book. I have Orchestrator 2012R2 and SCOM 2012R2 configured. Orchestrator is co-located with VMM2012R2.
Operating system for all is Windows server 2012
I have installed and deployed the Orchestrator R2 Integration packs which in deployment manager state version 7.2
I have checked to ensure that both Orchestrator, SCOM and VMM are all R2 (They are)
I am looking to create a runbook that will start services as per the link here: (Thanks to Jakob for this)
http://blog.coretech.dk/jgs/sco-2012-scom-2012-best-practice-monitor-alert-and-restart-a-service/
I can test the connection to the SCOM server - fine
I create the monitor alert step and test - fine
I create the start maintenance mode step and get the following error:
Filed to get Monitor. The exception was "An object of class MonitoringObject with ID 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 was not found.".
I have used the runbook tester and the monitoringobjectfullname is present in the output for the start maintenance mode step.
However irrespective of the variable that I attempt to use in start maintenance mode step I continue to get the same error as above.
The monitor alert step completes with no issues, but everytime on the start maint mode step it fails.
I have validated the SCOM connection account has all the appropriate SCOM permissions. I have also provided it with full domain admin rights, but with no success.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this would be welcomed
Thanks in advance

Hi Stefan,
A little extension of your approach as this is only usable if you want to set a Windows Server into Maintenance Mode - but not e.g. for Distributed Apps
I just required the "Start Maintenance Mode" Activity to set a distributed app and a websphere application server instance (which is not linked with the server itself). And I did not find any documentation how to fill the field - only for Windows
Computer.
So I'll post my result on how to get the value which needs to be entered within the "Monitor" field:
(PowerShell - Use "Activities > System > Run .Net Script > Type: Powershell)
Import-Module OperationsManager
$object= Get-SCOMMonitoringObject -displayname "<desired object displayname";
# or use the ID instead:
# $object = Get-SCOMMonitoringObject -ID "<ID of object>";
$name = $object.displayname;
$fullname = $object.fullname;
$monitor = $name + " : " + $fullname
Then put $monitor within "published data" and you can use it directly in the "Start Maintenance Mode" Activity.
This only works if the runbook is running on a SCOM management server as it requires the SCOM Powershell Module. But at least it somehow shows the syntax.
Best Regards

Maintenance mode is cancelled for no reason by the system

Hi, very unusual and sporadic problem.
Let's say we put a URL monitor into maintenance mode for 4 hours.
After 2 hours we reboot the URL hosting server.
The maintenance mode has been cancelled and the URL will alert again while we continue to work on it.
Should this happen ? The version is SCOM 2012 SP1 UR6.
Thanks in anticipation.

If there is lot of data, Then add this string and userid like '%User name who silenced the URL%'
so this will totally filter the report to only all the servers / items silenced by a specific user.
So it will come like this
USE OperationsManagerDW
SELECT ManagedEntity.DisplayName, MaintenanceModeHistory.*
FROM ManagedEntity WITH (NOLOCK)
INNER JOIN
MaintenanceMode ON ManagedEntity.ManagedEntityRowId = MaintenanceMode.ManagedEntityRowId
INNER JOIN
MaintenanceModeHistory ON MaintenanceMode.MaintenanceModeRowId = MaintenanceModeHistory.MaintenanceModeRowId
where DisplayName Like '%%' and userid like '%User name who silenced the URL%'

OVM-2020 Server pool master can not be set to maintenance mode

Hi Guys.
I have 2 server in ha mode
server 1 (10.99.99.161) with oracle Manager installed (server pool master, utility server, vm server)
Server 2 (10.99.99.161) without Oracle Manager installed (utility server, vmserver)
HA enable with server1 and server 2
10.99.99.165 is the virtual server pool master
1 San connected with server 1 and server 2.
Without problem I can connect on https://10.99.99.165:4443/OVS without problem.
All seems work, but :
1 - I I try to set in maintenance mode the server 1, the VM Manager say me:
OVM-2020 Server pool master (10.99.99.162) can not be set to maintenance mode, please use server pool master failover policy to change its role, then try again.
What I shuld do ?
2 - If I turn off the server 1 the server pool master is attribuite to server 2, but I'm unable to connect on https://10.99.99.165:4443/OVS webpage. It is correct, it is a bug, or I'm doing something wrong ? Must I upgrate something ?
Many Thanks
Luca

You need to ensure the VM that's running the Oracle VM Manager software is still running. Live Migrate it first (preferred option) and flag it HA-enabled so that it is automatically restarted in the case of a server failure.

HELP: WLC AP-SSO not working (standby unity in maintenance mode)

I have two WLC version 7.3.101.0 with the standby unit having HA-SKU. I have tested the AP-SSO functionality without any problem in lab with direct connection on RP port between two WLC. Once I brought them into data centre in separate location (latency is less than 10ms between the two DC), the standby unity always went into maintenance mode. The booting process on standby unit went to maintenance mode as shown below:
Management Gateway and Peer Redundancy Management interface are not reachable.
Entering maintenance mode...
I have checked on the core switches at 2 data centre that the two WLC RP ports are connected to same VLAN and it is spanned across MAN link (10GB and less than 10ms delay). The spanning tree on those ports are forwarding as well.
I have rebooted the second unit but no luck.
The interface between two DC is using MTU 9216 which I do not think would cause this issue.
Anyone has come across same or similar issue with me or know the solution? If you do, plz enlighten me.
Thanks

Thanks Leo and Scott for your feedback. I notice there are two newer software for WLC version 7.3.102.0 and 7.4.100.0.
Both of them seem to have many open caveats. In my wireless environment, I also use ISE, MSE and Prime Infrastructure and unfortunately WLC 7.4 does not support prime solution and MSE yet according to below compatibility matrix.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/5500/tech_notes/Wireless_Software_Compatibility_Matrix.html
I think I only have choice to do minor upgrade to 7.3.102.0 at this moment (please correct me if I am wrong). This software was published on 30th Jan 2013 so I wonder if someone else has tried this and managed to get WLC AP-SSO setup working flawlessly where 2nd WLC unit is at different location?
Appreciate for more info and advise.

Maintenance mode disapeared

Hello,
I am using SCOM 2012 R2 and the problem is that, if I put an agent in a maintenance mode for more than 24 hours using the specific end time duration. the maintenance mode will disapear automaticaly after some hours !!!
How can I solve this problem ??
Regards,
SAM

Usually, agent machine will not exist maintenance mode until it reach its scheduled end time.
1) Is it a particula issue?
2) not put managmemt server in maintenance mode
3) put a problematic sever in MM and run powersehll cmdlet get-scommaintenance to see its scheduledendtime is correct
4) If problem exist, check wheher any script or monitor recovery task which will force agent exits MM

Set Server Pool Master to Maintenance Mode

Hi all,
when trying to set a server pool master to maintenance, I got this: "OVM-2020 Server pool master (vm-13) can not be set to maintenance mode, please use server pool master failover policy to change its role, then try again."
I have dug through the help and docs, but can not find a method for dynamically reassigning the server pool master role.
This document: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15441/server.htm#CCHIEBCE , just says "You must first reassign the Server Pool Master role to another server in the server pool.", without describing how.
This document: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15441/site.htm#insertedID4 , states "You can also dynamically change the Oracle VM Server which acts as the Server Pool Master without causing any outages. See Section 3.4.1, "Editing Server Pool".", which just links back to the same section I am already in.
Now, I can just migrate all my machines and then stop ovs-agent, but I am not always the one managing this, and having a nice way through the web interface would be great.
Please just tell me I am blind and point me to the section in the manuals which tells me how to do it, or is this a feature which got dropped before release?
Thanks.

I have got the same problem, I want to switch the role of the server pool master to another server in the same pool. But after reading these answers, I have absolutly no clue how to do it!
We have a productiv environment, so any ideas like shutting down or stopping VMs are not acceptable.
So here is the situation:
"ovs#1" is hosting all VMs at the moment - Server type: Utility Server,Virtual Machine Server
"ovs#2" is free of any VMs - Server type: Server Pool Master,Utility Server,Virtual Machine Server
I want to switch the Server Pool Master from "ovs#2" to "ovs#1" without any downtime. How does this work? Thanks!

IPad in maintenance mode - Error 28 - does not let me do a reset

Hello @ all...
Yesterday, I updated my iPad (Series 1) to iOS 5.1 and tried to update the installed apps in the next step. I accidently tried to installed the new iPhoto App, that I had already purchased and iTunes told me - what was completely right - that my actual hardware was not compatible. So far so good. I clicked on "OK" to close the error message and instead of doing the rest of the sync process, everything stopped and my iPad switched to maintenance mode.
Some check-my-stuff-steps later, I tried to connect my iPad to iTunes and do a full reset in order to get the tablet back to work. The process started and after some minutes I got some error marked with number 28, which seems to be some kind of "unidentified hardware error". At next, I checked the Apple support pages to find some info on this...
I checked the malware/virus scanner... It's up to date and - for some testing - even switched off.
I checked the Windows installation... It's up to date and working fine.
I restarted the whole PC - nothing changed.
I waited for about 20 hours and tried to do it again... Nothing happend...
I still have the same problem and definitely no idea, what's the reason for this and what I can do to solve this issue. So my hopes lie on you guys...
Thanx in advance...
m.t.k.

Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

Booting to maintenance mode

Hi
still being new to solaris10 i,m having probs, i had the same prob b4 solaris not booting up so reinstalled again, booted ok, tried it a couple of times went to on to day wont boot up hav followed wot screen says wih tryin different ways to boot cant get any further than maintenance mode hav got into failsafe but cannot do anything, tried running "svcadm clear system/boot-archive etc

Hi Hitesh,
I tried it but the problem is if i logged in on maintenance mode, i can't execute the svcadm
(not only this, any of the commands like vi, ls etc)
What i found is the /usr is not mouting properly in maintenance mode.
hence it is not able to go to sbin and hence all the executables.
and on failsafe mode, i can't clear it also.
# svcadm clear system/boot-archive
svcadm: Instance "svc:/system/boot-archive:default" is not in a maintenance or degraded state.

Machine booting up to maintenance mode only

Hi guys,
I have a problem with one of my Solaris 10 Servers. The issue is it is always going to maintenance-mode.
I'm getting the follwoing message while botting up.
+\+
WARNING: The following files in / differ from the boot archive:
The recommended action is to reboot to the failsafe archive to correct
the above inconsistency. To accomplish this, on a GRUB-based platform,
reboot and select the "Solaris failsafe" option from the boot menu.
On an OBP-based platform, reboot then type "boot -F failsafe". Then
follow the prompts to update the boot archive. Alternately, to continue
booting at your own risk, you may clear the service by running:
+"svcadm clear system/boot-archive"+
When i logged in failsafe mode, the OS partition is mounted as /a .
Then i edited vfstab, and then did bootadm as follows
bootadm update-archive -R /
But after restaring the machine goes to maintenance mode.
Any clue to get rid of it ?
Thanks in advance..

How to switch to maintenance mode in Webdispatcher

Hi, everyone!
Please tell me how to switch to maintenance mode in webdispatcher by shell scripts.
I use Webdispatcher on HP-UX.
Best Regards,
Masahide Yano

Hi Masahide
I was able to write a script to do this. Hopefully this helps others.
First, I am assuming the web dispatcher is running with basic authentication.
The script did something similair to what wget would do,
wget -user=<user> -pass=<password> http://<host>:<port>//wdisp/admin/icp/confirm.icp?what=change_maint&p1=1
The problem with this is that you get a confirmation page. This page has 3 form parameters, what, token, and p1. The token is what you will need to extract to make the next call.
You then make a call to http://<host>:<port>//wdisp/admin/icp/do_action.icp, passing post parameters, what = "change_maint", token = <what you got from the previous call, and p1 = "1". 1 Enters maintenance mode, and 0 Enters running mode.
I did this all with a PHP script, and the Snoopy class. It works very nicely.
We are also able to add and remove servers out of load balancing, using the same technique.
Cheers
Russell
