CS_PLATFORM - BoxMonitor

VNXEvent10680 (Rule)

{0}

Knowledge Base article:

Causes

This event is logged when the BoxMonitor is not able to ping a specific interface on a slot in 10 retries within 40 seconds.

Resolutions

Check if the Control Station (CS) can ping anything on the subnet where the interface is located (primary 192.168.1.x or secondary 192.168.2.x). If the CS cannot ping anything on that subnet, then there is most likely a network hardware issue or a CS network configuration issue. Check the network switch(es) along the affected management network chain. If the CS network configuration is OK (run the "ifconfig" command), try replacing the network cable from the CS to the network switch for the affected network. Check the Data Mover(s) network configuration using the command "t2tty -C 'slotnum' ifconfig". Also "ping" commands can be executed (using "t2tty" command as shown in the last example) on the DMs to check network connectivity between the DMs and the DMs and CS. If the message is intermittent, it may indicate DART is under stress to the point where is it not responding readily to network pings in a consistent fashion.
