Degraded blade server/Power PIC
After a blade server blade or motherboard replacement, the blade slot may show a degraded state
(as seen in the exdsmgr show blade_chassis command) and the Insight display on the blade chassis
may show an error message indicating that the power PIC module has outdated or incompatible
firmware. If so, you can update the PIC firmware as follows:
1. Log on to the server.
2. Start hp-ilo by entering the following command:
service hp-ilo start
3. Flash the power PIC by entering the following command:
/opt/hp/mxso/firmware/power_pic_scexe
4. Reboot the server.
Server has blade-swapped status
The server blade in this bay position has been moved from another bay in this system, from another
HP ExDS9100 system, or is not an HP ExDS9100 server blade. This status can also briefly occur
when a failed blade has been failed and replaced but should change to running as soon as the server
completes the boot process.
Try to determine which blade was swapped using the show blade_chassis command. Look at
the server names (for example, glory1, and so on) in the server blade section to see if there is a
misplaced blade (for example, glory10 appearing in bay 4).
If the blade contains HP ExDS9100 system software, the blade boots to single-user mode. Connect
the TFT monitor/keyboard dongle to the blade to investigate this. Use the mxso_ilo command to
try to connect remotely using the iLO. See Replacing the blade chassis for more information.
Server has not-configured status
1. Look at /var/log/messages and /var/log/hp/exds/configd/configd.log on the
server.
2. Rerun the configure server command, as shown in the following example:
# exdsmgr configure server 3
where 3 is the server number.
Syscheck command takes a long time to run
The exdsmgr syscheck command gathers most if its data from the utility database. However, some
data is gathered directly by syscheck. If the syscheck command appears not to be completing,
you can force it to only use data from the utility database as follows:
# exdsmgr syscheck level=1
PSFS filesystems do not automatically recover after storage power is cycled
To recover PSFS files ystems after storage block power is cycled, reboot all servers in the cluster, one
at a time.
