Compute nodes are not discovered by the IBM Flex
System Manager management
node or the CMM
Complete the following steps until the problem is solved.
- Make sure that the compute node is recognized by the IBM® Flex
System Manager management
node (if installed) or the CMM. It may appear as an unknown device
in the chassis map. If it is not recognized, perform the following
steps.
- Remove the compute node and inspect both the compute node and
the back of the compute node bay to ensure there is no physical damage
to connectors.
- Move the compute node to another bay.
- Replace the system-board assembly (see Removing the system-board assembly and Installing the system-board assembly).
- Make sure that the IBM Flex
System Manager management
node or the CMM can ping the compute nodes, if they cannot, see Cannot ping the IBM Flex System Manager management node on the management network.
- If the compute nodes are in another chassis, make sure that you
have the proper software entitlements to manage that chassis with
the IBM Flex
System Manager management
node.
- Check the IBM Support Portal for any firmware
updates that might apply to this issue. You can view the release notes
for a firmware update to determine the issues that are addressed by
the update.
- Check the IBM Support Portal for any service
bulletins that are related to network connectivity.
