Error Message

2010/03/03 11:21:01 VCS ERROR V-16-10001-5013 (node01) IPMultiNICB:resource1:online: This IP address is configured elsewhere. Will not online

 

Resolution

The issue can be due to one of the following scenarios:
 
1. The IP address is already in use on the same network. Use ping to check if the IP address is in use elsewhere on the network.
 
# ping192.168.0.1
 
2. Leading spaces before or after IP Address in Address attribute of the IPMultiNICBresource
 
       IPMultiNICBresource1 (
        BaseResName= mnicb_res
        Address= " 192.168.0.1"  <=== Note leading space.
               NetMask= "255.255.255.0"
               )
 
The spaces can be removed by redefining the resource using the hares command:
 
#haconf -makerw
#hares -modify resource1 Address "192.168.0.1"
#haconf -makero
 
3. The IPMultiNICB agent tried to use the IP address too quickly and the original IP had not cleared and or expired it's OnlineRetryLimit threshold.
 
Increasinge the OnlineRetryLimit value of the resource:
 
# haconf-makerw
# hatype-modify IPMultiNICB OnlineRetryLimit 10
# haconfd-dump -makero
