•
You should have a valid ticket from the RS/6000 SP authentication services.
Use the
klist command to check authentication and kinit command to
request authentication (if required).
• If the install_cw script does not complete successfully, then refer to Appendix
A.2, “The install_cw Script” on page 236 to see a detailed flowchart of the
working of this script and identify where the script has failed.
Diagnosis and
Message Guide, GC23-3899 could provide useful pointers based on the error
message that you received. For example, if the script has failed because
you have not yet completed the kerberos configuration, then you need to
complete the authentication part first.
2.5 Problems with spmon
SP System Monitor refers to four main components:
• Hardware Monitor
The hardware monitor consists of a set of commands and a daemon to
monitor and control the SP hardware platform
•
SP System Monitor GUI
The SP system monitor graphical user interface (GUI) to the hardware
monitor provides a point-and-click method to view the system status and
interact with the frame, node, and switch controls.
•
Command Line Interface
The spmon, hmmon, hmcmds, s1term, and nodecond commands with their flags
and parameters, provide a way to monitor and control the SP system.
• Logging daemon
The splogd logging daemon logs SP hardware state changes, reports SP
hardware errors, and provides a state change alert.
Figure 17 on page 32 shows a diagram of a System Monitor, where lines
represent relationships of its different components.
