User Response: Select either another primary node or primary backup node.

0028-042Cannot change personality on node node_name.

Explanation: The personality of the specified primary or backup node cannot be changed to that of a secondary node. Either the node is unreachable using the remote command, or the fault service worm daemon is not running on the node.

User Response: The Estart or Equiesce command continues. If an Estart command was issued, the node may be fenced if the worm daemon is down. Start the worm daemon on the node and issue Eunfence. If the problem is due to a remote command error, check the Kerberos authentication setup.

0028-043Primary backup node node_name busy. Retry command later.

Explanation: The daemon would not accept the change personality command because the primary backup node is busy. Either a primary or backup primary node takeover is occurring.

User Response: The Estart or Equiesce was not successful. Issue the command again later.

0028-044Unable to find suitable primary backup node. No primary backup node running.

Explanation: The oncoming primary backup node in the System Data Repository was not available. Either the Ethernet is down, the daemon is not running, or the primary backup node is fenced. The switch attempted to choose another node, but was not able to find an available node. The switch is running on the primary node.

User Response: Estart continues. Make sure that you intend to run only on the one node. If the reason a primary backup node could not be assigned is because the nodes are fenced, run Eunfence to unfence one or more nodes and then issue Estart again.

0028-045Expected.top file contains nodes outside the current partition, cannot start switch.

Explanation: The expected.top file resides in /etc/SP on the primary node.

User Response: Estart continues. Make sure that you intend to run on only the one node.

User Response: See the chapter on diagnosing switch problems in PSSP: Diagnosis Guide.

0028-075Could not distribute the topology file to these nodes. They may not come up on the switch network.

Explanation: Estart attempted to distribute the switch topology file to all nodes with css adapters and host_responds=1 and was not successful on the listed nodes.

Probable causes are insufficient Kerberos authentication and lack of dasd space. These nodes may not have the proper topology file and therefore may not initialize on the switch.

User Response: Determine why the nodes could not receive the switch topology file then enter the command again.

0028-076The characteristics of the topology file on Node node does not appear to match that on CWS.

Explanation: The Estart command attempted to distribute the topology to all nodes with adapters and host_responds=1 and was not successful on the specified nodes. These nodes may not have the proper topology file or the files have different characteristics.

User Response: Determine why the nodes could not receive the topology file. If the file is present, determine why the ls filename command returns different results. This may be due to different versions of the ls command or National Language Support considerations.
