Problems with 7.5.2 client not starting up at reboot time
Author Message
Post Problems with 7.5.2 client not starting up at reboot time 
We've upgraded a number of Linux and Solaris clients to 7.5.2 (Build
452) and noticed that many clients don't start after the machine has
been rebooted. Our server is running Solaris 7.4.5 (Build 746). Anyone
see this problem?

Thanks.

Mike,

I'm guessing that you have set nsrports.... starting with 7.5, the code to start up is flawed.
You have to make sure that nsrports -S does *NOT* include 7937 and 7938. Those two ports are
hard coded and will be used no matter what nsrports says to do -- but including them in the
range causes other processes to use them and then you get error messages in the
/nsr/logs/daemon.raw file that say the port was already in use... with no idea which port!
Easiest way is to instead of using something like

nsrports -S 7937-7940

instead do

nsrports -S 7939-7949

(notice I didn't change the ending port... because 7937 and 7938 will really be used, I just
can't tell networker that it is allowed to use them or it will use them at the wrong time)

Mike:
On your Linux clients, have you checked for the existence of /etc/init.d/networker? There is a bug (which I filed with EMC) where the RPM removes the startup script when you upgrade the RPM ("yum update lgtoclnt" or "rpm -U"). I've asked for it to be fixed previously, but we'll see. Doing a simple remove, reinstall fixes the issue.

If I was a betting man, the Solaris clients probably have the same bug.
