Problem/Symptom

Troubleshooting action to take

Installed nodes are not showing up 
in the management interfaces 

Visually check that the front panel LEDs on the node chassis are 
blue, which indicates the node is powered on.
Incorrectly cabling the cluster is the most common installation/
hardware issue. Cables are color coded so you can distinguish 
between the cables going to the upper and lower switch and right 
and left NIC slots on the nodes. Cross wiring the upper and lower 
switches can take down the entire cluster.

• Ensure the blue cable from the right 40 GbE NIC is plugged 

into the bottom switch in rack unit 41.

• Ensure the red cable from the left 40 GbE NIC is plugged into 

the upper switch in rack unit 42.

• Ensure the cables lock into place both in the node and the 

switch—there is an audible click when the cables are properly 
seated.

• Ensure you are using the required cables. In a multi-rack 

cluster, make sure you place the rack with the two switches in 
the middle. Central switches must be within 5 meters from a 
rack to use the required cables.

Verify that all nodes are connected to the external customer 
network. 

Note that HSP does not ship with an external network 
switch by default—customers are expected to supply their 
own switch and cables.

Installed disks are not showing up 
in the management interfaces

• Visually check that all of the data drive LEDs are green, which 

indicates the drive is working.

• A node only scans for new drives once an hour, so if you have 

replaced/inserted a drive, it remains in an error state until the 
next scanning occurs.
