BMYFW0001E

Failed to put a node into maintenance mode for the firmware update.

It indicates that a node could not be moved into maintenance mode for the firmware upgrade. Check the diagnostic messages that are available on the IBM Fusion user interface and take an appropriate action before you retry the firmware upgrade operation on other nodes.

Error

Diagnostics and resolution

Do the following steps to diagnose and resolve the issue:

Check whether the node is placed in a maintenance mode for a planned work. In this case, bring the node out of maintenance mode after the planned work is complete.
If a machine configuration roll out is in progress, then wait for the roll out to complete and the node to return to a ready state.
If the node is in a Notready state for more than 30 minutes, then it might be an error with the node in the joining cluster. Do the following steps to resolve the issues that are related to the joining cluster:
1. Run the following command to check for the pending CSRs.
```
oc get csr|grep -i pending
```
2. If you find any pending CSRs, then run the following command to approve them:
```
oc get csr -o go-template='{{range .items}}{{if not .status}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}{{end}}' | xargs oc adm certificate approve
```
3. If you do not find any pending CSRs, then restart the node.
4. Connect to the node by using the core OS private SSH key and run the following command.
```
ip a
```
5. Recover the node during the following scenarios:
  - IPv4 address assigned to the bond0 interface
  - br-ex interface not created
  For steps to recover the node, see Recover node.
The storage cluster health can be degraded. Check the current storage cluster type.
- If the storage cluster type is IBM Storage Scale or IBM Storage Scale ECE, then see IBM Storage Scale documentation to resolve the issue.
- If the storage cluster type is Data Foundation, then see Data Foundation documentation to resolve the issue.
