IJ12506: ON SOLARIS ZONES : "IFCONFIG" REQUIRED SUDO PRIVILEGE TO GET IPINTERFACES WITH ZLOGIN COMMAND

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Problem Description:
  
  While Zone login(zlogin) is running command ifconfig to get
  zone IP , it is failing with error
  
  GenericServerSensor- DEBUG os.SolarisOs - Unable to get zone IP
  address :
  
  com.collation.platform.session.SessionCommandFailedException:
  CTJTP1135E The following text is the exit status: 1.
  
  at
  com.collation.platform.session.SshSessionClient.executeCommand1(
  SshSessionClient.java:538)
  
  ..........
  
  
  In this case we need to re-form the zlogin command and
  increasing the ifconfig privilege with sudo.
  
  to be able to set in this command:
  "zlogin <zonename:agotcx601> ifconfig -a inet"
  
  the sudo ifconfig, so re-formed as
  
  "zlogin <zonename:agotcx601> sudo ifconfig -a inet" (working
  one)
  
  The property to be set is:
  com.collation.platform.os.command.ifconfig="sudo ifconfig"
  
  or
  
  com.collation.platform.os.command.ifconfig.SunOS="sudo
  ifconfig"
  
  then the zlogin command when invoked will read and handle it
  

Local fix

• n/a
  

Problem summary

• Zone login(zlogin) runs the command "ifconfig" to get
  zone IP. However, it fails with the following error:
  GenericServerSensor- DEBUG os.SolarisOs - Unable to get zone IP
  address :
  com.collation.platform.session.SessionCommandFailedException:
  CTJTP1135E The following text is the exit status: 1.
  at
  com.collation.platform.session.SshSessionClient.executeCommand1(
  SshSessionClient.java:538)
  ..........
  In this case, the zlogin command needs to be reformed and the
  ifconfig privilege should be elevated with sudo.
  The property to be set is:
  com.collation.platform.os.command.ifconfig="sudo ifconfig"
  or
  com.collation.platform.os.command.ifconfig.SunOS="sudo
  ifconfig"
  then the zlogin command when invoked will read and handle it.
