Cluster Platform 3000 Notes
This chapter contains information that applies only to Cluster Platform 3000
systems.
9.1 Remote Console Logins Do Not Work on HP ProLiant DL140
G2 Nodes
Logging in remotely to a console, either through the XC console command or by
a telnet session to the lights-out 100i (LO-100i) remote management processor,
does not work on HP ProLiant DL140 G2 nodes.
Secure shell (ssh) logins can be opened to the nodes through the administrative
network, interconnect, or external connections. telnet connections to the
management processor can be established and other operations can be performed,
but Linux logins to the nodes are not possible through that interface.
The following message might be observed on the console or in message logs:
init: Id "co" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
This problem will be resolved in a future revision of the HP ProLiant DL140 G2
firmware.
9.2 The power Command Might Fail on HP ProLiant DL140 G2
Nodes
Under certain conditions, HP ProLiant DL140 G2 nodes might fail to turn off
power with the XC power command, with other commands that invoke the power
command, or with the power control commands of the LO-100i remote management
firmware.
This problem may occur if the node is halted or if the kernel panics or is hung. This
problem may also happen on an initial installation when an operating system is
not running on the node. If this happens, turn off power to the node by manually
holding down the power button or removing power.
This problem will be resolved in a future revision of LO-100i remote management
firmware.
