HP Matrix Operating Environment 7.3 Release Notes
Before you start a delete service request from infrastructure orchestration:
1. Make sure that the Integrity service was successfully provisioned (the Integrity service is running).
2. Discover the Integrity blade where the Integrity service is running using its IP address from
Systems Insight Manager. In a federated CMS environment, discover the Integrity blade on
the primary CMS using its IP address from Systems Insight Manager. The Integrity node's
identification information should contain the UUID and UUID (logical). You can discover the
blade in either of the following ways:
a. Use the Systems Insight Manager menu selection Options→Discovery..., or
b. Use the Systems Insight Manager command: mxnode -a <ip-address> -w
where <ip-address> is the IP address that was assigned to the Integrity blade after
provisioning.
Add the root login of the Integrity blade using the Systems Insight Manager menu selection
Options→Security→Credentials→System Credentials....
3. Set up an SSH connection between the CMS and the Integrity blade by entering the command:
mxagentconfig -a -n <ip-address> -u root -p <root password>
4. If the IP address was discovered on the primary CMS in a federated CMS environment (in
step 2 above), manually delete the managed node.
Use the Systems Insight Manager command: mxnode -r <ip-address>
Suggested action
If you did not perform the preceding steps before you started a delete request for the Integrity
service, the automatic delete service will not succeed completely. In that case, you must clean up
the logical server associated with the Integrity blade and manually erase the disk. The logical
server should be in an operable state.
1. Power on the server blade. (The blade was powered off when delete service request completed
or failed.)
2. Perform steps 2 and 3 in the preceding section, if you did not do so before starting the delete
service request.
3. To erase the disk, enter the following command from the CMS where the discovery was
executed (in step 2 in the preceding section):
mxexec -t "Ignite Erase Disks" -n <ip-address>
4. If the IP address was discovered on the primary CMS in a federated CMS environment (in
step 2 in the preceding section), manually delete the Systems Insight Manager node.
Use the Systems Insight Manager command: mxnode -r <ip-address>
Service creation fails for physical requests when Windows Server OS is selected
Matrix OE infrastructure orchestration service creation fails when a physical template with Windows
Server OS is selected. This failure occurs when infrastructure orchestration times out waiting for
Insight Control server deployment to complete installation of Insight Management Agents on the
target server.
Suggested action
When a request fails, infrastructure orchestration automatically retries the request and a new server
is provisioned with the requested service. The original server is moved to the maintenance pool
and can be cleaned and moved back to a valid server pool. If the failure is observed frequently,
the following steps can be followed to disable the installation of Insight Management WBEM
providers. Insight Management SNMP agents continue to provide management capabilities when
WBEM providers are not installed.
