This section explains how to confirm the status of network devices for NS Appliances.
From the GUI:
Select a target network device in the network device tree on the ROR console.
Select the [Resource Details] tab of the Main Panel.
Check the following in the [General] area.
Device status
When the displayed status in [Device status] is something other than "normal", an error may have been detected as a result of network device monitoring. In that case, troubleshooting of the NS Appliance is necessary.
A status other than "normal" may be also displayed when there are problems with dedicated servers for NS Appliances or the communication routes, so also check the statuses of resources such as dedicated servers for NS Appliances or LAN switch blades placed in the communication route to the NS Appliance.
For details, refer to "Chapter 11 Monitoring Resources" in the "Operation Guide CE".
Network device type
The NS Appliance type is displayed in [Type].
The type of the available target NS Appliance can be checked using the rcxnetworkservice list command.
The type must be the same as the type information (TYPE) of the NS Appliance displayed in the rcxnetworkservice list command.
If it is not the same, re-create the NS Appliance or modify the network device.
- When creating the NS Appliance again, refer to "4.2.14 Reuse of NS Appliances".
- For details on how to change network devices, refer to "7.6 Changing Network Device Settings" in the "User's Guide for Infrastructure Administrators (Resource Management) CE".
