Troubleshooting Cluster Start and Restart

This section provides information about troubleshooting problems that you might encounter with starting and restarting the Sun Cluster Geographic Edition software.

Validating Protection Groups in an Error State

After a cluster reboot the protection group configuration might be in an error state. This problem might be caused by the common agent container process not being available on one of the nodes of the cluster when the protection group is initialized after the reboot.

Solution or Workaround

To fix the configuration error, use the geopg validate command on the protection group that is in an error state.

Restarting the Common Agent Container

The Sun Cluster software enables the common agent container only during the Sun Cluster software installation. Therefore, if you disable the common agent container at any time after the installation, the common agent container remains disabled.

Solution or Workaround

To enable the common agent container after a node reboot, use the /opt/SUNWcacao/bin/cacaoadm enable command.
