Troubleshooting resource plans

Log files

When the egosh command finds errors while applying the resource plan, it shows detailed messages in stderr. When you specify an error log path, egosh appends error messages into the error log. This is useful when your resource plan is not a valid XML file, in which case the error message may include the whole XML string, which is a large amount of information to display as stderr.

The error log is named egosh.log.%hostname%.

Messages

  • If the resource plan is updated successfully, egosh shows the following messages:
    The resource plan of consumer %s has been updated for DistributionTree %s
  • If the resource plan fails to update, egosh shows error messages for individual error cases. For example:
    Your user account has insufficient rights to run the egosh command. 
    Log on as Cluster Administrator or Consumer Administrator
  • If you run egosh consumer applyresplan with the -c option to check the applied resource plan and the resource plan is valid, egosh shows the following message:
    The resource plan %s is valid; it is ok to apply the resource plan.
