10.2.1 Identification of Error Locations

This section explains how to identify the network device on which an error has occurred.


When Notified of an Error by a Tenant Administrator or Tenant User

Use the following procedure to determine the location of the problem.

  1. Confirm the network device status using the ROR console.

    • If event logs showing the errors of network devices are not output.

    • If status icons of resources on the network device tree have not changed to a status other than normal

  2. When there is a network device on which an error has occurred, check if the device is the network device used for an L-Platform for which notification has been received.
    When an error occurs on a network device which is not used for the L-Platform for which notification has been received, refer to "When an Error is Detected during Status Confirmation Using the ROR Console".

    • When the network device on which an error has occurred is a firewall

      1. In the orchestration tree, select the L-Platform providing services for which notification has been received from a tenant administrator or tenant user that an error has occurred.

      2. Select the [Resource List] tab of the Main Panel.

      3. Confirm "Use Resource" of "Firewall List".

        When the status of a used resource is something other than "(normal)", and the name is the same as the network device confirmed in 1. on which an error has occurred, the error will be identified as having occurred on the network device (firewall).

        Additionally, confirm the status of the specified firewall.

        For details on how to confirm the status of the firewall, refer to "10.2.2 Firewall Status Confirmation".

    • When the network device on which an error occurs is something other than a firewall

      1. Confirm the name of the network resource.

        The name of the network resource can be confirmed in the items of the displayed results of the rcxadm netdevice show command (AllocatedResources[Network]). Specify the name of the network device confirmed in 1. for the name of the network device name for the name option.

      2. Select the L-Platform from the orchestration tree.

      3. Select the L-Server under the L-Platform.

      4. Select the [Resource Details] tab of the Main Panel.

      5. Confirm "Network Resource" of "Network Information". When the network device name is the same as the name confirmed in a., the error on the network device (L2 switch) can be identified on the specified network device that was confirmed in a.

        Additionally, confirm the status of the specified L2 switch.

        For details on how to confirm the L2 switch status, refer to "10.2.3 L2 Switch Status Confirmation".

      When there is no network device on which an error has occurred, one of the following errors may have occurred.

    • The wrong access control rules have been applied to the firewall, and passing of communication packet data is being rejected

      Use the following procedure to confirm the status of the firewall.

      1. Identify the firewall used for the notified L-Platform.

        For details on how to specify the firewall, refer to "When the network device on which an error occurs is firewall".

      2. Confirm the status of the firewall.
        For details on how to confirm the status of the firewall, refer to "10.2.2 Firewall Status Confirmation".

    • An error occurred in a network device that is managed using Resource Orchestrator

      Request investigation from the network device administrator from the following point of view.

      • If an error has occurred on a network device connecting to the network device used for the L-Platform.

      • If an error has occurred on a network device on the communication route to the L-Platform

      The network device administrator must confirm the network device status, using the following procedure.

      1. Log in directly to a network device other than the L-Platform.

      2. Confirm the status of the network device.

  • For details on the rcxadm netdevice command, refer to "1.3.6 rcxadm netdevice" in the "Reference Guide (Resource Management) CE".

  • For details on the operations (such as status confirmation) for network devices, refer to the manuals of network devices.


When an Error is Detected during Status Confirmation Using the ROR Console

When an error is detected during status confirmation using the ROR console, it can be determined that an error has occurred on the network device which has indicated an error (a firewall or an L2 switch).
