3 Troubleshooting the Oracle Private Cloud Appliance

This chapter describes some common problems you may encounter with your Oracle Private Cloud Appliance (PCA).

The following troubleshooting topics are covered:

3.1 Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Error Message

Problem: You may encounter a warning message in the agent log file about the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance.

Resolution: This is a known issue. The warning message can be ignored. Typically, the message will look like this:

2015-05-15 13:06:04,896 [87:75FBA055] WARN - Can not evaluate push properties for

3.2 Targets Still Appear as Pending

Problem: After discovering the PCA Rack, you may still see all SI targets are in Pending state.

Resolution: You must kill the stuck availability job in the OMS:

$ sqlplus sysman/sysman
SQL> SELECT job_subname, elapsed_time, cpu_used FROM dba_scheduler_running_jobs WHERE job_name = 'EM_REPOS_SEV_EVAL';
SQL> BEGIN dbms_scheduler.stop_job('EM_REPOS_SEV_EVAL'); COMMIT; END;
