I believe your first guess is correct. The ces-ip needs to be resolvable for some reason... Just put a name for it in /etc/hosts, if you can't add it to your dns.<br><br><br> -jf<br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">ons. 7. sep. 2016 kl. 20.45 skrev Valdis Kletnieks <<a href="mailto:Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu">Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu</a>>:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">We're in the middle of deploying Spectrum Archive, and I've hit a<br>
snag. We assigned some floating IP addresses, which now need to<br>
be changed. So I look at the mmces manpage, and it looks like I need<br>
to add the new addresses, and delete the old ones.<br>
<br>
We're on GPFS 4.2.1.0, if that matters...<br>
<br>
What 'man mmces' says:<br>
<br>
1. To add an address to a specified node, issue this command:<br>
<br>
mmces address add --ces-node node1 --ces-ip 10.1.2.3<br>
<br>
(and at least 6 or 8 more uses of an IP address).<br>
<br>
What happens when I try it: (And yes, we have an 'isb' ces-group defined with<br>
addresses in it already)<br>
<br>
# mmces address add --ces-group isb --ces-ip 172.28.45.72<br>
Cannot resolve 172.28.45.72; Name or service not known<br>
mmces address add: Incorrect value for --ces-ip option<br>
Usage:<br>
mmces address add [--ces-node Node] [--attribute Attribute] [--ces-group Group]<br>
{--ces-ip {IP[,IP...]}<br>
<br>
Am I missing some special sauce? (My first guess is that it's complaining<br>
because there's no PTR in the DNS for that address yet - but if it was going<br>
to do DNS lookups, it should be valid to give a hostname rather than an IP<br>
address (and nowhere in the manpage does it even *hint* that --ces-ip can<br>
be anything other than a list of IP addresses).<br>
<br>
Or is it time for me to file a PMR?<br>
