Symptoms


 Pilot ILOMs do not update after replacement.


Changes


 


Cause


Pilot ILOMs will be updated based on what is found in the /rpms/firmware directory on each Pilot.  If these files are missing, it will not be possible to synchronize the version of a replacement Pilot or Controller motherboard.


Solution


Depending upon the extent of the damage, it is possible to restore these files in one of two ways:


    

  • If the files are missing from only one Pilot, they can be copied from the other Pilot.
    • 

  • If the files are missing from both Pilots, they can be extracted from the AxiomONE-SW-installed directory.
    • 



NOTE: The following examples depict the basic steps required to recover from this situation.  Pilot1 (172.30.80.2) is the active Pilot and Pilot2 is the standby (172.30.80.3) may be reversed and depending on the current software version, the filenames will likely be different.


    

  1. ssh to the active Pilot, see Document 2029847.1 FS System: How to Enable SSH to the Pilot.
    2. 

  2. Confirm if the files are missing from the active Pilot:
    

    [root@pilot1 rpms]# ls -l /rpms/firmware
    total 78464
    -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20281231 Feb 25  2016 ILOM-3_2_4_46_r99951-Sun_Server_X4-2.pkg

    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root     5427 Jun 29 22:13 pilot_fw_update.py
    -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root    37903 Feb 19  2016 pilot_x4-2_bios_25010603_fs1-2_defaults.xml
    -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root    71415 Feb 19  2016 pilot_x4-2_ilom_3.1.2.30.b_r86439_fs1-2_defaults.xml

    3. 

  3. Use ssh to check if the files are still on the standby Pilot:
    

    [root@pilot1 rpms]# ssh 172.30.80.3 ls -l /rpms/firmware
    total 78464
    -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20281231 Feb 25  2016 ILOM-3_2_4_46_r99951-Sun_Server_X4-2.pkg

    4. 

  4. If the files are missing from both Pilots, skip to step 6 below.
    5. 

  5. If files are missing from only one Pilot, copy the files to the Pilot from which they are missing:
    

      

    1. If the files are missing from the active Pilot, copy them from the standby Pilot:

      3. 

    3. Confirm that the permissions, timestamps etc are the same:

      total 78464
      -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20281231 Feb 25  2016 ILOM-3_2_4_46_r99951-Sun_Server_X4-2.pkg

      4. 

    

    6. 

  6. 

    If the files are missing from both Pilots, create a temporary workspace and copy the Pilot apps package there:
    

    [root@pilot1 /]# mkdir /var/tmp/RPM
    [root@pilot1 /]# cd /var/tmp/RPM
    [root@pilot1 RPM]# ls /rpms/AxiomONE-SW-installed/*pilot-apps*
    /rpms/AxiomONE-SW-installed/oraclefs-pilot-apps-060214-049902.x86_64.rpm
    [root@pilot1 RPM]# cp /rpms/AxiomONE-SW-installed/oraclefs-pilot-apps-060214-049902.x86_64.rpm .
    

     
    

    NOTE: the above example is for R6.2.14.  Pilot apps package names will contain the appropriate release.
    

     
    

    7. 

  7. Extract the files from the Pilot apps package:
    

    [root@pilot1 RPM]# rpm2cpio oraclefs-pilot-apps-060214-049902.x86_64.rpm | cpio -idmv
    ./etc/rc.d/init.d/deleteOldRpms
    ./etc/rc.d/init.d/fmdHandlerService
    ./etc/rc.d/init.d/globalManagerActive
    ./etc/rc.d/init.d/globalManagerPassive
    ./etc/rc.d/init.d/linkwatch
    ...
    ./var/lib/pillar/pcp
    ./var/lib/pillar/pcp/managed_resources.xml
    ./var/lib/pillar/pcp/pilot-config.xml.factory
    ./var/lib/pillar/pcp/rsyncd.conf    
    3911762 blocks
    
 
    8. 

  8. Copy the files to the proper directory:
    

    [root@pilot1 RPM]# cp -p rpms/firmware/* /rpms/firmware
    
 
    9. 

  9. Clean up the temporary workspace:
    

    [root@pilot1 RPM]# cd ..
    [root@pilot1 tmp]# rm -Rf RPM
    
 
    10. 

  10. Copy the files to the standby Pilot
    

    [root@pilot1 tmp]# scp -p /rpms/firmware/* 172.30.80.3:/rpms/firmware/
    ILOM-3_2_4_46_r99951-Sun_Server_X4-2.pkg                                   100%   19MB  19.3MB/s   00:00

    11. 

  11. Repeat step 5-c above for both Pilots to confirm the permissions etc are correct.
    12.
