Knows issues which might appear after 3.20 upgrade.
Please check below before going to support. Apologize for inconvenience.
-
Does not work CPU pool alerting due to a bug in update_cfg_alert.sh. Download and replace scripts/update_cfg_alert.sh.
Remove etc/alert.cfg if you have already created it and create it once more via new script: "$ scripts/update_cfg_alert.sh" -
If you have any problem then at first look at etc/lpar2rrd.cfg if SSH directive has a space between "ssh" and "-q" : SSH="ssh -q"
Best is remove "-q" from there. -
Update or install process fails for creating favourites, alerts and custom group cfg files.
Run failed cmds manually.
Note that for alerting use this script scripts/update_cfg_alert.sh as is explained above. -
Physical and Logical configuration web page is completely blank
Solution is clearing browser cache/restart browser/press shift during reload or all together. -
There has been found a bug in alerting, fix it manualy before is released 3.21 where it will be fixed.
Just go to LPAR2RRD home dir and copy&pasted text started with "ed " and ended "EOF"$ cd $LPAR2RRD_HOME$ $ ed bin/alrt.pl << EOF 284s/managedname/managedname_prev/g w q EOF
