Nexus 1010 boot failed

Hi all,
I tried to boot nexus 1010, but only cimc can login. The serial console did not show any information, and still no response. So I tried to connect keyboard and monitor, both are no response. In addition, the nic port is down too.
Have any idea? Or who to troubleshooting it?

Hello Padma,
Has this server worked before ?
-> Yes.
Are you able to access the N1010 host CLI interface by doing SSH to CIMC IP address ?
-> Yes.
ssh admin@ "connect host" did not show any response, and console can not return to CIMC.

Nexus 1010 - Issue copying s/w onto device using SCP.

Hi
I'm trying to copy the new version of s/w ( nexus-1000v.4.2.1.SV1.4.iso) onto a Nexus 1010 switch using the command:
copy scp: bootflash:repository
The software starts to copy but unfortunately only gets to around 10% complete before failing. It's almost like it's getting stuck for some reason?
The file is quite large (163Mb), however, there is plenty of space on the disk (see below) so I cannot understand while this is happening.
switch# dir bootflash:repository

Hi guys,
Any ideas on this?

Nexus 1010 HA Error

              Hi,
While I bring Up Secondary Nexus 1010 I am getting this error on primary
Error in getting supervisor and internal state of other supervisor.
sh redundancy status
Redundancy role
      administrative:   primary
         operational:   primary
Redundancy mode
      administrative:   HA
         operational:   None

    Supervisor state:   Active
      Internal state:   Active with warm standby
Other supervisor (sup-2)

Error in getting supervisor and internal state of other supervisor.
On the redundant (standy ) unit I am getting this message
%SYSLOG-2-SYSTEM_MSG: Did not receive supstate notification in 180 seconds. Still waiting
What could be possible reason ? can this be a firmware mismatch ? Both are having same configuration for management control and packet vlan. Both are on same L2 network. If I disconnect the standby unit management cable, it will boot. But if management cable is connected, it will be stuck in the above phase.
regards
Prasad K

Prasad,
This means that there is some sort of a communication issue between the two Nexus 1010 switches in the control VLAN. You should probably check the upstream configuration on the ports that connect to the 1010 links carrying the control traffic and also the links involved in the control path.
Thanks,
Shankar

Nexus 1010 no vsb present

Hi
I have a customer with a pair of Nexus 1010s that they have been testing. After lots of rebooting and pulling of cables etc as they test redundancy things have gone pear shaped. Now the VSBs seem to have disappeared.
Show module says VSB not present on the primary and the secondary.
Show running config has a section like this:
virtual-service-blade NAME1-1010
virtual-service-blade-type name VSM-1.0
etc
I dont see anywhere in the config a line like
virtual-service-blade-type new iso-file
Does the above line show up in a show run ?
Also where are the ISO files stored as a show boot doesnt show them, tehre are some bin files but no .iso files.
Thanks
Regards
Pat

Seems like you are bringing up the setup for first time.
Initially when you bring up Nexus1010, there will not be any VSB present. They need to be deployed using
VSB enable cli.
The running confiig that you are looking seems okie. Looks like you just associated a template with VSB.
You need to proceed further deploy VSB. Please refer to docs for the same.
"new" doesnt appear in running config. It translates to "name" which is template name that iso-file contained.
ISO files are present in bootflash:repository/ folder. If they are not there for some reason, you can download latest releases from CCO link for N1k and NAM.

Nexus 1010 - No MGMT0 Access?

Hi all, I hope someone here can help!
I am setting up a Cisco Nexus 1010 appliance, but cannot access it through the MGMT0 interface!
What I am trying to do is copy over the 1000V .iso file to install a vsm, but I can not even ping the mgmt0 interface.
I have booted from the 4.2(1)SP1(3) iso, ran through the initial setup where I set the uplink type, domain id, vlan id and mgmt0 ip details.
Current config and sh tech attached
Let me know what other information I should post!
Kind regards, Ash.

Hi everyone,
I have a problem, similar to Ashley's in regards to reachability of N1010 in my lab...
I'm using network-uplink type 1 as it would be more than enough for my lab deployment. I have configured the CIMC and can reach/configure the device from there pretty easily. But, no matter how I try, I can't seem to get management access.
The N1010 is connected via it's Lom0 port to a Catalyst (at Fa0/10), which is configured as a trunk port. I'm using Vlan10 for all purposes...
The uplink switch has a configuration like this:
interface VLAN10
ip address 10.2.1.66 255.255.255.128
no ip directed-broadcast
no ip route-cache
interface FastEthernet0/10
description NEXUS_1010_TEST-LOM0
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk native vlan 10
switchport mode trunk
And the show running-config output from the Nexus1010 shows this:

Hyper-V 2012 R2 new VM with ISO in DVD boot failed - default SCSI not IDE

Hi, have created some VMs fine on 2008R2 and 2012 Hyper-V but now onto 2012 R2, am using the Gen 2 VM and hitting install error when booting them from the 2012R2 RTM .ISO (downloaded straight from Technet) loaded into virtual DVD:
I see from http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/53f901e4-5bd0-4e13-80a2-bca2f57b15e9/hyperv-unable-to-boot-from-cd-or-iso-in-vm-machine?forum=winserverhyperv that Hyper-V seems unable to boot from a synthetic SCSI until guest OS actually
installed - so Catch-22! But I can't add an IDE Controller because it's not on the list:
I tried the Integration Services and it seems fine on the Settings (including ticking the only one unticked - Guest Services) although if you need to run them from the DVD, it has the same problem - you can see them loaded (or the Win2012R2 ISO) in the DVD
Media but you can't make them run through booting on SCSI!
The physical drives are SATA not SCSI but presumably no matter as Hyper-V runs SCSI virtually, but why does Hyper-V default to SCSI and how do I get the DVD to run off an IDE instead if that is the way to install a base OS from .ISO? Or is there an easier
way than all this?
TIA, Phil.

I found this article:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/jhoward/archive/2013/11/11/hyper-v-generation-2-virtual-machines-part-9.aspx
I hope this help.
"...yes, we’re acutely aware that the generation 2 EFI boot loader messages persist on the screen and it can be a little confusing. Essentially what the generation 2 virtual machine did was:
Attempt to boot from the CD SCSI device containing the Windows 8 ISO. This is where the ‘Press any key…’ message came from. As no key was pressed, we went to the next boot entry. (And this is where we didn’t clear the message from the EFI CD boot loader)
I didn’t press F12 (in fact, this VM wasn’t connected to a network), so network boot failed
The SCSI VHDX is raw with no partitioning or file system, so this too failed
So why did the generation 1 virtual machine start setup from the Windows media? The answer is simply that it’s the way Windows media is built, and it’s inconsistent between the PCAT and EFI loaders.
However, it’s relatively simple to solve if you want to avoid the press any key message. In fact, we almost have all the pieces from previous parts. In particular, part 4 where we injected keyboard drivers into the Windows 8 media.
If you loopback mount Windows 8 or 8.1 RTM media, and navigate to the \efi\microsoft\boot directory, you will see there are two versions of cdboot.efi
The default version, cdboot.efi prompts for a keypress. The unused version, cdboot_noprompt.efi doesn’t prompt.
So it’s fairly simple to create modified media which uses the noprompt version. First, copy the contents of the ISO to a working directory, rename cdboot.efi to cdboot_prompt.efi, and rename cdboot_noprompt.efi to cdboot.efi.
Do the same with efisys.bin and efisys_prompt.bin
Then re-use our oscdimg command (in an elevated deployment and imaging tools environment) from part 4 to recreate the media.

Boot Failed, Single User FSCK couldn't load, mounting Macintosh HD failed, repair and verify returns no errors, and i need to transfer my data before starting over - HELP!!!!

Lets break down the facts here: My machine is an Intel-Based iMac running Mavericks - 1TB Hitachi Hard Drive
1. Was running an initial baseline image with Time Machine when the computer froze - waited hours - nothing got better and no functions were possible (force quit, etc.)
2. Hard Reboot
3. Upon reboot, the iMac was unable to load the log-in screen. The image was a folder with a "?" on it.
4. Rebooted with option key held down and selected Macintosh HD - Boot Failed
5. Restarted and Rebooted with Command R held down
6. Ran Disk Verify and Disk Repair - returned errors round one.
7. Ran Disk Verify and Disk Repair - Returned no Errors
8. Restart - Boot failed - the "NO" symbol replaced the apple symbol
9. Reboot with Command R
10. Attempt to mount Macintosh HD
11. Mount Failed.
12. Shutdown
13. Connect Firwire to Host computer and Target Computer
14. Boot with Command T
15. TDM entered - Host Machine cannot read Target Hard Drive
16. Shutdown
17. Boot with Command S
18. Endless loop created - Multiple errors including:
     - failed to open create the journal retval 0
     - could not read 512 bytes for the journal header - Return 22
     - Errorno 19
     - hfs_mounterror return: 22
Short of springing for a software online, I have no idea what the next steps are to getting my data moved from the Macintosh HD to my external so I can just reformat and install the OS again. Any help would be greatly appreciated, this is is a serious headache and I cannot lose my data - Thats what I was backing it up for in the first place!!!!

You may not have the luxury of having another Mac but you must know someone who does. You need to boot your Mac into target disk mode. This is going to be your best bet as far as saving your files. Keep in mind that everytime you mess with this computer you are further endangering your data. Also, once your Mac is booted as a target disk, it may be possible to mount it on a windoze computer just to copy your files to another drive. I used to have one here and if i still did I would try this for you but I "offed" it in favor on running windoze (Parallels) on my MBP. But, one way or another, you need to get next to another computer.

Satellite A660 - Will not boot up and HDD boot fail

Hi,
firstly thanks for your time.
Model: Satellite A660 (PSAW3A-07U00R)
The problem started yesterday, the computer was going slow as an application closed, so I held the off button untill the pc turned off. When I restarded the laptop it went to a screen saying: Start windows normally or repair Windows (recomended)
When started normally it just hangs at a blank screen, the repair Windows recommends a system restore to earlier point which didnt work. As it just hangs again. I tried pressing F8 and starting in safe mode but again it just hangs. Then after a few times trying safe mode and another system restore the computer then hangs when I press F8. After this the computer goes past the Toshiba logo screen with F2 and F12 options (which both still work), and then it comes up boot failed then goes blank and comes with boot failed bootfailed with some numbers and letters, then it goes to a small box titled boot menu with 4 options.These are
HDD/SSD Toshiba MK6465GSX
CD/DVD MAT****ABD-CMB UJ141ES
FDD
LAN
If I press ESC it goes through the bootfailed loop and ends up at same screen, if I press enter on "HDD/SSD Toshiba MK6465GSX" then it quickly comes back to screen and at the bottom it says [HDD/SSD Toshiba MK6465GSX] is failed.
I dont understand why it got worse over time. Can anyone think of why this has happend and more importantly how can I get my pc working again? Note: holding 0 then starting does nothing for me atm
regards, Matthew

All you people looking here on this dead thread.....
Toshiba A660 laptops are renowned for having hard drive fails and boot up problems after grinding to a halt.
My solution (after losing 3 hard drives [and a terabyte of family treasured times]) is the following.
Use MALWAREBYTES (free download and use for 28 days)
Scan and fix. Mine found over 300 trojans that 2013 Norton 360 could not find.
Re-boot into safe mode.
SCAN again.
Re-boot and empty the malwarebytes repair files it retains...
Run Norton/McAfee (whichever you have) and you should still have no issues.
Make a back-up repair disc. Ooooops......no you cant...........at least my laptop can`t.
I don`t know why.....
Tell me tosh..... why does windows x64 refuse to allow me to make a system boot disc (even though the laptop is all driver updated and Windows updated)?
Uninstall MalwareBytes when Norton/McAfee tells you there will be a conflict between the two programs.
It tells you to re-boot after uninstalling it.
Then when it re-boots you get a black screen. You cannot even get to bios. You think ytour laptop is turned into a brick frisbee. You pull out the battery in frustration after five minutes.
You replace and re-boot....but again you get no bios or boot up.... you think its destroyed the Bios or graphics somehow....youo can hear the hard-drive but you have no clue whats going on..
Around this time you shake the laptop in frustration.....
Calm down.
Switch on and leave FIFTEEN MINUTES....Ten of which will be a Black nothing screen with maybe a single white underscore line in the top left corner.LEAVE IT ALONE.
Make a sunday dinner for ten people....When you go back to the computer it will be up and running.
When you re-boot again, it will be dead black for five minutes...then boots up... you still think it has a problem... LEAVE IT.
When you reboot again it should work perfect (assuming you have not been overheating it by using it on a cushion on your lap and overheating the insides [use a laptop fan tray]) if you have not shaken your hard drive or caused scrambled damage by pulling the power fifty times like some people do.
I have lost three hard drives and thousands of Gigabytes of treasured family memories discovering the secret the hard way.
Enjoy.
Buy a different brand next time.
ALL Windows system files should be on a SWITCHED (to update) version of Windows.
Spinning drives should be for Data only.

Hi Sabih,
For a Nexus 1010 pair to form HA redundancy, the communicate with each other via the Control VLAN. You would have specified this during your installation.
Can you verify that they are both utilizing the same Control VLAN.
n1010# show svs domain
Furthermore, ensure that this vlan is defined and forwarding, on the relevant ports, on the upstream 6509s.
Thanks,
Michael

New Error - Unable to Create Any Backups (com.adobe.versioncue.boot - Failed to start com.adobe.vers

A new error just started showing up in my Vc logs: com.adobe.versioncue.boot - Failed to start com.adobe.versioncue.backup.schedule.
Since the report of this error, I am unable to create any kind of Version Cue backups. Has anyone else seen this error?
I had hoped that a simple reboot would alleviate the problem, but it didn't. The error occurs during Vc startup (boot). It's a little odd that Vc was mostly fine until I rescheduled my Windows Backup (ntbackup.exe) to run 90 minutes earlier, and failed to tell Diskeeper to also not auto-defrag 90 minutes earlier. (In other words, it's possible that Diskeeper did its thing the same time ntbackup was running.)
Running Windows XP SP3. I'm going to try a repair install of Vc in a few moments.

Update 2: ntbackup restore of System State to day before last successful Vc backup failed to correct the problem. I can't even run a manual backup.
Can anyone tell me how to determine the ClassPath used by Vc?
There is no stack trace from this error - the exception is caught and handled, so Vc continues to run after creating the single log entry posted in Msg-1 above. By knowing the ClassPath, I may be able to restore the corrupted Java JARs, if that is the root of this problem.
I'd really hate to have to (ntbackup) restore the whole computer back to last Monday...

Boot failed: solaris server does not boot

Hi All,
one of my support person who has administrator previlages tried move the contents of root to trash directory, in the middle it got hung,and he had restrted the server.
Now the solaris does not boot. It says
boot failed
Enter Filename [platform/sun4v/kernel/sparcv9/unix]
and what ever we enter there it says boot cannot read.
Please suggest some workaround, nearly 200 users are down, actually it is our licnese server.

Hi,
What you could try is the following :
Boot the system from the solaris cd into single user mode.
Find out what the disk is you need to mount and mount it under /a
After you have done this you can see if you can move back the stuff that was moved from the root directory to the trash.
If that works then you could try and boot again from the disk to see if everything works again.

Prasad,
This means that there is some sort of a communication issue between the two Nexus 1010 switches in the control VLAN. You should probably check the upstream configuration on the ports that connect to the 1010 links carrying the control traffic and also the links involved in the control path.
Thanks,
Shankar

No export command in Nexus 1010

Hi all,
We want to do a backup of a virtual-service-blade in a Nexus 1010. The document we are following is:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus1000/sw/4_2_1_s_p_1_3/software/configuration/guide/n1010_vsvcs_cfg_7backup.html
What we are supposed to do fron this document is to create a file named export-import, to shutdown the primary o secondary virtual service blades, and after it, to execute the command "export primary" o "export secondary", depending on which vsb we want to export.
========= DETAILED STEP IN THE DOCUMENT ================
n1010-1(config-vsb-config)# export secondary
Note: export started..
Note: please be patient..

The problem is that this "export" command is not available in our nexus 1010.

We don't know which can be the problem, wheter it can be a bug in the software, or we are doing something wrong.
Thank you

The export command was a new feature added in the 4.2(1)SP1(3) version of code. Your 1010 is one rev lower.
You'll need to upgrade the code on the 1010 to the latest code to get the export command.
The upgrade is pretty straight forward. Just download the code and follow the upgrade guide.

Zones not booting - failed to create devlinks: Interrupted system call

I just installed the latest 10_Recommended cluster with 118833-36 kernel patch and now my zones won't boot. I get the error:
(root)Yes Master?> zoneadm list -iv
ID NAME STATUS PATH
0 global running /
- samba installed /export/home/zones/samba
- web installed /export/home/zones/web
- dhcp installed /export/home/zones/dhcp

failed to create devlinks: Interrupted system call
console setup: device initialization failed
zoneadm: zone 'test': could not start zoneadmd
zoneadm: zone 'test': call to zoneadmd failed
Also, running devfsadm or drvconfig;devlinks from the global zone will core dump.
Any ideas..??
tia..

First, you gotta change your prompt to something less embarrassing when you post to a public forum :)
I'd forget about the zones problem and focus on why devfsadm core dumps -- that's the core of the problem (no pun intended...no, really!).
First, review the install logs of all the patches installed during the recent service (/var/sadm/patch/*/log). Even if they all show a good completion, check the messages they generated, sometimes they have errors that aren't bad enough to cause a complete failure of the patch. The KJP (118833-36) is probably a good one to start with.
Next I'd "truss" the devfsadm command while it core dumps then get a stack trace of the core (run "adb <corefile>" and type "$C" -- that's old school, I'm sure mdb is much cooler...).
Throw some of the strings from those against sunsolve and see if something sticks.
Good luck!

Nexus 1010 + 1000v control vlan issue

Hi,
I have Nexus 1000v installed on nexus 1010. The nexus 1010 is in cluster and working fine. I have made network uplink option 3.
My VSM is configured to be on L3 mode. Hence I set control and packet vlan to 1 (on vsm). while creating the VSB too I have choosen control and packet vlan to be 1 (keeping in mind my mode will be L3).
Now The vsm is not coming up in HA. The redandancy log says degraded mode is true.
Is it because, the control packet coming from VSM after reaching the N1010, the packets are getting tagged with vlan 1. Since I have not set any native vlan on 1010, might be control vlan 1 is also tagged one. Is it this the case ?
help needed on this issue.
regards
Prasad K

Control vlan is a totally seperate VLAN then your System Console. The VLAN just needs to be available to the ESX host through the upstream physical switch and then make sure the VLAN is passed on the uplink port-profile that you assign the ESX host to.
We only need an interface on the ESX host if you decide to use L3 control. In that instance you would create or use an existing VMK interface on the ESX host.
