Hello all,

I am getting this error when I try and connect to Openfiler storage manager. Openfiler was not setup by me, I inherited it, and when I first came into this role ( for about 2 days) I could access the login screen. Now however, I cannot, all I get is the attached error. I also cannot connect usin PuTTY, the server is on however and nothing has changed that I know of.

 

So, nothing has changed, the server is up and all the details are the same, scanning the range shows that Openfiler IS still on that IP. I have rebooted the OpenFiler server (which also involved rebooting 8 VM’s – so not keen on doing that again) but still to no avail.

I run the below commands and get the below:

 

[root@blc-san ~]# /etc/init.d/NetworkManager status

NetworkManager is stopped -----Should this be started?-------

 

[root@blc-san ~]# /etc/init.d/network status

Configured devices:

lo bond0 eth0 eth1 eth2 eth3

Currently active devices:

lo eth0 eth1 bond0

 

I have also run netstat -intpu: see attached

I hope this info is helpful, and thanks in advance!

It's been a while since I've managed an OpenFiler box, but as you have root access, it should be relatively easy to troubleshoot using standard Linux commands and procedures.

 

ifconfig eth0

 

(Swap eth0 for eth1 as well)

 

This should show the IP configuration for each of those interfaces. Check the obvious - IPs, network mask etc; and also check which interface is connected to the actual network and where at.

 

You should be able to restart services using the service command, for example:

 

service networkmanager restart

 

Also check /var/log/messages for any debugging or error info.

Network Manager needs to be running. Try and remove networkmanager lock file from /var/lock/subsys/ Edited by Geoff

Hi David (I'm assuming!!).

 

Some info on this setup. The system is set up with an Etherchannel/802.3ad Bond on 2 interfaces - so only Bond0 should return an IP (ie. ifconfig bond0).
