APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Even though the tenant contains no
    keys, it cannot be deleted when
    there are other clients registered
    to it.  On the same cluster,
    the client should have already
    deregistered.  So, it is likely that
    the registered client is from another cluster.
    

Local fix

  • Deregister all registered key clients from
    the key server before
    deleting the tenant.
    

Problem summary

  • Even though the tenant contains no
    keys, it cannot be deleted when
    there are other clients registered
    to it.  On the same cluster,
    the client should have already
    deregistered.  So, it is likely that
    the registered client is from another cluster.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Benefits of the solution: 
    Even though the tenant cannot
    be deleted from the key server when
    there are other clients registered
    to it, allow the mmkeyserv
    command to clean the tenant
    definition from the GPFS cluster.
    Work Around:
    Deregister all registered key clients from
    the key server before
    deleting the tenant.
    Problem trigger:
    Deleting the tenant when there are
    other clients registered to it.
    Symptom:
