7-32 Troubleshooting

Syslog

“A timeout occurred for waiting BMC response.” is recorded in the syslog.

οThe following logs may be recorded while the system is running. These logs are recorded if the software that has acccess to BMC could not receive any response from BMA within a certain time period. However the contents of these logs does not influence the system.

A timeout occurred for waiting BMC response. Process = (Although Primary BMC is ready)

A timeout occurred for waiting BMC response. Process = (Secondary BMC is still running)

“I/O error” is recorded in the log at OS startup:

οThe following message may be displayed on the screen or recorded in the log if a USB floppy disk drive is connected at OS startup. However, this will not impact operations (in the description below, * represents an alphanumeric character).

Partition Check:

sdg:<6> I/O error: dev **:**, Command ********, sector 0

I/O error : dev **:**, Command ********, sector 0 unable to read partition table

“APIC error” is recorded in the syslog by the operations such as inserting/removing disks:

οA message “APIC error” may be recorded to the log or displayed on the screen when you perform operations such as inserting/removing disks with the server powered on, because the internal status managed by the OS and the actual status on the server side are different. The operations are not affected.

“info synchronization error” is recorded while the CPU modules are being synchronized:

οA message “info synchronization error” may be recorded in the log when the CPU modules are performing duplication because the internal status managed by the OS and the actual status on the server side are different. The operations are not affected.

“card reports no resources” log is recorded when using the built-in LAN board:

οA message “card reports no resources” may be output to the log when the system cannot allocate the resource for the LAN driver due to high load ratio on the network access. The operations are not affected. LAN driver performs retry automatically thus the system continues communication without disconnecting the network connection.
