ether_hostton errors from cb_reset |
|
22 Jan 1998 |
Issue cb_reset on an ssp, and get the following
cb_reset
Resetting host snax-cb0...
warning: ether_hostton(SrcHost:beer): Bad file number
warning: ether_hostton(SrcHost:beer): Bad file number
warning: ether_hostton(SrcHost:beer): Bad file number
Resetting host snax-cb1...
warning: ether_hostton(SrcHost:beer): Resource temporarily unavailable
warning: ether_hostton(SrcHost:beer): Resource temporarily unavailable

snax-cb0 is ready...
snax-cb1 is ready...
The cb_reset actually completes, but the error messages are annoying.
SOLUTION SUMMARY:
/etc/nodename is probably incorrect.
The following details are from a machine that *is* suffering from
the error message. Note that /etc/nodename contains an alias to
the real name of the ssp. To correct the problem, edit /etc/nodename to
match the true name and reboot.
# cat /etc/nodename
beer
# cat /etc/hostname.qfe0
snax-ssp
# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
129.153.49.179 snax-ssp beer loghost
# cat /etc/ethers
8:0:20:87:58:a5 snax-ssp beer
