Master Security Client Situations
Table 19: Master Security Client Situations
Situation Resolution
The MSC is no longer bootable or able to
connect to the FC network.
You must reassign a Backup Master as the new MSC
from the Backup Master.
Warning: Use this procedure only if the MSC cannot
relinquish control to a Backup Master. For
example, if the MSC is no longer bootable or
able to connect to the FC network. Under any
other circumstances, if the Backup Master
takes over as the MSC and the MSC is still
running or comes back online later, there will
be two MSCs for the same security
configuration. This will eventually lead to
corruption of the security configuration.
New Keys Were Generated While Servers Were
Offline. A "Generate New Keys" operation was
performed while one or more of the servers were
offline. Now those servers can no longer access the
HBAnyware Security Configurator or the
HBAnyware utility.
The servers are no longer part of the security
configuration. In order to reset the security on the
affected servers, you must contact Emulex Technical
Support to receive a special application and instructions
on the reset procedure. After the servers have been
reset, they can be added back into the security topology
by the MSC.
Note: If the server was also a client to an ASG, then
when you run the Security Configurator on the
MSC or a parent client of this client, its label in the
ASG tree of the Access Sub-Group tab will be "-
ASG (Offline Client) -". You must delete the ASG
(after deleting the child ASGs) and recreate the
ASG configuration of this client and its child
ASGs.
Security Removed While Servers Were Offline.
Security was removed while one or more servers
were offline. I can no longer access those servers
from the Security Configurator or the HBAnyware
utility.
The servers are no longer part of the security
configuration. In order to reset the security on the
affected servers, contact Emulex Technical Support to
receive a special application and instructions on the
reset procedure. After the servers have been reset, they
should be seen by the Security Configurator or the
HBAnyware utility.
