APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Sometimes, the clcomd chose the service IP address as the
    IP address of the target node, even though the service IP
    address is on local node. This is because the table was
    built when the service IP is on the opposite node, and
    when
    the connection is tried, the service IP is moved to the
    local node. As a result, clcomd cannot make the
    connection
    between the nodes, until it is being refreshed or
    restarted.
    For example, during a PowerHA clstop:
    .
    Nov 17 2011 09:58:48
    /usr/es/sbin/cluster/utilities/clstop:
    called with flags -N -s -gr
    8 dbref2: Communication error, see logfile
    cl_rsh had exit code = 255, see cspoc.log and/or
    clcomd.log
    for more information
    

Local fix

  • Refresh or restart the clcomdES by issueing
    # refresh -s clcomdES
    # stopsrc -s clcomdES;startsrc -s clcomdES
    

Problem summary

  • CLCOMD CANNOT COMMUNICATE SOMETIMES
    clcomd uses service IP when it wants to connect to other node
    which is AIX down. But if this service IP is moved to other
    node in the cluster during RG move, then connection will be
    established to that node where this service IP is available
    rather than to intended one(down node, connect will fail to
    this) and sends data to the wrong node and down the line,
    communication fails with PIPE errors.
    

Problem conclusion

  • When node is AIX down, skip adding stale IP addresses into
    clcomd tables for that node.
