Symptoms

You are using ODA X3-2 v2

When running oakcli validate -c storagetopology during ODA setup you see the following warning:

oakcli validate -c storagetopology

INFO : Check JBOD Nickname
WARNING : JBOD Nickname is incorrectly set to : Oracle Database Appliance - E1
INFO : Above details can also be found in log file=/opt/oracle/oak/log/oak1/storagetopology/StorageTopology-2

Changes

New install

Cause

This usually represent a cabling problem with the X3-2 ODA v2 to one of the JBODs storage shelf

Loose cable
Bad Cable
Incorrect cabling

The source of this problem is most likely to occur during an initial installation of the X3-2

This problem should not exist for the ODA v1 X4370M

Solution

If you are getting that error, please check the cabling

If you are sure the cabling is correct, then:

1)    execute Topology_Validation.sh –deploy     as root

/opt/oracle/oak/bin/stordiag/Topology_Validation.sh –deploy

2)    Run the validate again

         oakcli validate –c storagetopology

     Check to ensure the warning is gone -- if you make it this far then:

3)    Continue with deployment

If not, try switching the cabling or as possible switch and replace each cable one at a time and test with a known good cable using the same steps

-- If this also fails please open an SR with EEST / ODA support
