Troubleshooting Management Over the Network
Without NetRAID Assistant, the client(s) and server(s) connect normally, but the
NetRAID Assistant cannot connect to any servers
For NetRAID Assistant to connect to a server, it must resolve the server via
TCP/IP. Ping the server by name from the client or server that will run HP
NetRAID Assistant. If this is unsuccessful, then the client or server that will run
HP NetRAID Assistant cannot resolve the server using TCP/IP. Confirm the
following conditions:
The IP addresses are unique.
The subnet mask is not causing a group resolution problem.
The
hosts
file contains correct names and IP addresses for all servers with
HP NetRAID Series adapters to be managed.
No response when connecting to a server; may get Server Not Responding
message after several minutes
The server is likely to be down and the connection attempt/timeout may take two
minutes before a message is generated. Be sure the selected server is up.
NOTE
If the server is still not up when the timeout message is
displayed, HP NetRAID Assistant will exit.
