Health status changes to 'Attention' when password of host is changed
Health status of host changes to Attention
when you
change the password.
Problem
Health status of host changes toAttention
when you change the password and gives the
following error:Nova agent state of Host <ip_address> is Error, Ceilometer agent state of Host <ip_address> is Error
Explanation
When you change a password, the changed password is not reflected in the configuration files that
the PowerVC server relies on. Also, the
state of the hypervisor remains unchanged as the compute process is not able to get the latest value
of hypervisor_state
.
However, as the previous value of hypervisor_state
is set to
Operating
, the health process continues to poll the Nova and Ceilometer agent
service state. If the health process is unable to communicate with the host, the Nova and Ceilometer
agent service state is set to Error
.
