Problem logging in to Unisphere as nasadmin after IP changes

Hi,

I followed the steps in emc248710 to change the Celerra Control Station and SP IP addresses.

I am running Dart 6.0.41.4 and Flare 30.000.5.517.

When I log into Unisphere using the SP address I can get in but I still see the old Domain Details.

If I log in as root to the Control Station IP address I can get in but don't see the CLARIION.

If I try to log in as nasadmin to control station I just get a java type box saying starting services and it hangs.

Anyone seen this and any idea how to fix before I open a call with EMC support?

I have a feeling it's something to do with domains but the only thing I can find suggests using navicli -h SPA domain -delete but that command doesn't exist on my version of Dart/Flare.

I have rebooted the control station and the SP's reboot as part of the changing IP address procedure.

Thanks

Ian.

Yes. we had the same issue and we followed the primus solution emc259262

Edit the files domain_list and domain_master and input correct IP addresses and reboot the control station and it will work fine.

Hey thanks, thats looks like the problem.

Will give it a try when back on site tomorrow.

I take it you can just edit the files with vi?

Funny they say that customer didn't use the CLARiiON_mgmt command but actually that's how i did it so there must be a little bug there somewhere.

Thanks for your quick reply.

Vi editor will help. We changed CX IPs twice using clariion_mgmt command and first time we did not have any trouble and second time we had this issue.

Narahari,

Thanks that sorted the issue.

I have noticed one other funny glitch from changing the IP address of the control station. When I log into Unisphere as nasadmin using the SP address and look at the domains it still shows the old IP address for the control station along with the two new SP addresses.

Have you got this same issue? Or do you know how to fix that as well?

Thanks for your help.

Regards

Ian

Fixed it myself. Seems you can't remove the old control station IP from the domains via the Unisphere GUI so back to the good old command line.

Ran the following command from the control station which removed the old system and then re-added the new control station ip.

/nas/sbin/navicli -h domain -list

/nas/sbin/navicli -h domain -remove

/nas/sbin/navicli -h domain -add

/nas/sbin/navicli -h domain -list
