Upgrade of SCU package to 4.5 fails to start SPL when using sudoer Domain account
Applies to
SnapCenter Plug-in for Unix (SCU) 4.5 and higher
Issue
When upgrading or installing the Linux package to a Linux host, with the sudoers prepared to use a Windows Domain account, the SPL will not start, and SnapCenter will show the Host's Plug-in as "Service Stopped".
The installation log, after having uploaded and run the plug-in package installer (*), shows:
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it <IP_ADDRESS>:8145
*) with a new Host addition (without a previous version of the plug-in being installed) the first of these messages are normal before the installation attempt in the log, since the SPL isn't running, listening on port 8145 yet. The message is only a real issue when coming after the package installation attempt.
