RE: Blade registration
Greetings,
Problem solved - but I don't know how. Tech. Support had me run many
tests to try to determine the source of the problem - including
re-installing IDS - None of them worked. This morning they had me
check my /tmp directory and verify I had 777 permissions and that there
was sufficient space; everything checked out. As the next step, they
had me delete the ./blademgr directory under /tmp; I then attempted to
register the datablade - the registration was successful.
After the registration, I made two observations:
1. Deleting the ./blademgr directory under /tmp was one of the first
things I did after I encountered the registration error;
2. After the datablade was registered, I still encountered the error:
blademgr>list un_sde64
blademgr: ERROR: Could not create log of database prepare.
The PMR has been closed, but I am going to continue searching for an
answer about why I had inconsistent results registering the datablade.
Thanks again to everyone who provided suggestions.
Mike
