Issue

  • Cluster switch log collection doesn't prompt for CNS admin password. Example:
::*> system cluster-switch log setup-password
Enter the switch name: cnswitch01(ABBC12345D6E)
RSA key
fingerprint is 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99:10:11:12:13:14:16
Do you want to continue? {y|n}:: yes
::*>
  • Log collection enablement fails. Example:
::*> system cluster-switch log enable-collection
Do you want to enable cluster log collection for all nodes in the cluster? {y|n}: y
cnswitch01(ABBC12345D6E)Error: Cluster switch password has not been configured on the cluster - aborting.
  • No errors reported in the cluster. Example:
::> system health alert show
This table is currently empty.
 
::> system cluster-switch log show
Log Collection Enabled: false
