Troubleshooting
Problem
The dsmrecall command fails with "A SOAP TCP connection error " while the dsmscoutd is actively running.
Cause
Incorrect Hostname in DSMNodeSet
Environment
Tivoli Storage Manager for Space Management on JFS2 and VxFS
Diagnosing The Problem
- The following errors are logged in the dsmerror.log file for a failed dsmrecall operation :
10/15/10 17:33:44 ANS9592E A SOAP TCP connection error has happened!
10/15/10 17:33:44 ANS9590E The SOAP error information: cCommunicationPartner::Check failed, reason: A remote host did not respond within the timeout period
- "dsmscoutd" is actively running.
- /etc/adsm/SpaceMan/config/DSMNodeSet has a wrong hostname entry:
<Hostname maxlength="1025" type="string">NODE1</Hostname>
In this example, NODE1 is an incorrect hostname. The correct hostname is node2. Because of this, the HSM client fails to communicate with dsmscoutd at: "http://node1:23152/ [
Resolving The Problem
Follow these steps to resolve the problem.
- Stop the master dsmrecalld daemon process, the master is the one with the ppid == 1. For example :
kill -15 dsmrecalld-master-pid
- Make sure dsmrecalld has stopped. For example :
ps -ef|grep dsmrecalld
- Remove the following files (if any):
rm /etc/adsm/SpaceMan/config/DSMNodeSet
rm /etc/adsm/SpaceMan/config/instance
rm /etc/adsm/SpaceMan/config/DSMSDRVersion
- Start the dsmrecalld daemon. For example :
dsmrecalld
Note:The restart of dsmrecalld will recreate the DSMNodeSet
- Verify the "/etc/adsm/SpaceMan/config/DSMNodeSet" file to make sure it contains the correct hostname and re-run the failed dsmrecall command.
