Issue

  • One node in the chassis locks I2C bus
  • Takeover initiated after no heartbeat was detected from the partner. Example:

[node_name : cf_main: cf.fsm.takeover.noHeartbeat:alert]: Failover monitor: Takeover initiated after no heartbeat was detected from the partner node.
[node_name : monitor: monitor.globalStatus.critical:EMERGENCY]: This node has taken over .

[env_mgr: monitor.shutdown.emergency:EMERGENCY]: Emergency shutdown: Environmental Reason Shutdown (System reboot to recover the SP)
 

  • Sensors are no longer readable
  • Boot failure of the down node. Example:
Failed to recover SP
IPMI:Get controller FRU inventory:failed
IPMI:Get midplane FRU 0 inventory:failed
Configuring Devices ...
IPMI PCI Slot Control failed
....
BIOS POST Failure(s) detected: SP IPMI failure. Abort AUTOBOOT
  • Due to the locked I2C bus multiple sensors unreadable. Example:

[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 1 is degraded: PSU1 Temperature is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 1 is degraded: PSU1 Current is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 1 is degraded: PSU1 Fan1 Speed is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 1 is degraded: PSU1 Fan2 Speed is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 1 is degraded: PSU1 Over Temp is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 1 is degraded: PSU1 Over Volt is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 1 is degraded: PSU1 Over Curr is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 1 is degraded: PSU1 InPower Monitor is Unreadable
[node_name : cphmd: hm.alert.raised:alert]: Alert Id = CriticalFanFruFaultAlert , Alerting Resource = xxxx raised by monitor chassis
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 2 is degraded: PSU2 Over Curr is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 2 is degraded: PSU2 Crest Factor is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 2 is degraded: PSU2 InPower Monitor is Unreadable
[node_name : env_mgr: monitor.chassisPowerSupply.degraded:notice]: Chassis power supply 2 is degraded: PSU2 Over Temp is Unreadable
