Cannot ping the IBM Flex System Manager management node on
the data network
Use the information in this section to troubleshoot the compute node when one or
more compute nodes cannot ping the management node on the data network.
Single node cannot ping the management node in the same chassis:
Use the information in this section to troubleshoot a single compute node that
cannot ping the IBM Flex System Manager management node in the same chassis
on the data network.
Action
Complete the following steps until the problem is solved:
1.
Make sure that the management node is powered on and is not hung, by
logging in to the management node. If you are unable to log in from the
management network, attempt to log in from the data network. If the
management node is powered on and hung, perform a virtual reseat of the
management node from the CMM.
2.
Make sure that the I/O module is powered on and is not hung, by pinging the
I/O module from the management node. If the I/O module is powered on and
hung, reset the I/O module. Make sure that the correct ports are enabled for
the node on the I/O module.
3.
Make sure that the compute node is the only one in the chassis that the
management node cannot ping. If it is not, follow the steps in “Multiple nodes
cannot ping the management node in the same chassis” on page 469.
4.
Make sure that the configuration settings in the node are correct and that the
port is enabled.
5.
Check http://www.ibm.com/supportportal/ for any firmware updates that
might apply to this issue. You can view the release notes for a firmware update
to determine the issues that are addressed by the update.
6.
Check http://www.ibm.com/supportportal/ for any service bulletins that are
related to network connectivity.
7.
Remove the compute node and make sure that the connectors on the midplane
and the node are not damaged.
8.
(Trained service technician only) Complete the following steps:
a.
Force the link/duplex speed.
b.
Check the connectors on the node and the midplane to make sure that no
pins are bent.
c.
Replace the system board in the compute node.
Single node cannot ping the management node in a different chassis:
Use the information in this section to troubleshoot a single compute node that
cannot ping the IBM Flex System Manager management node in a different chassis
on the data network.
Action
Complete the following steps until the problem is solved:
1.
Make sure that the management node is powered on and is not hung, by
logging in to the management node. If you are unable to log in from the
