Trying to run Dell’s DSET tool on Linux (RHEL), if it fails with the following error after entering the root password:
Failed to gather Chassis/Storage data. Check the IP Address, credentials and namespace.
Make sure you entered the root password correctly. Reset the root password if you’re not 100% sure.
Hi,
I had similar issues with Suse Linux Enterprise Server 10.
In /var/log/messages I found error :
sfcb[22064]: — Cannot listen on port 5989 (Address already in use)
I have checked which process is running on port 5989 – service wbem-https with
lsof | grep wbem-https
On Suse Linux it is owcimomd service so I stopped it with :
/etc/init.d/owcimomd stop
After that I was able to start Dell DSET tool with option 2) Create One-time Local System DSET Report
Report was succesfully saved to /root home folder.
However after report completion, I was unable so start owcimomd service – Dell DSET tool does not stop own sfcbd service.
I have checked which process is running on port 5989 – service wbem-https again with
lsof | grep wbem-https
And killed Dell DSET process sfcbd with
kill -9 [pid of process]
After that I was able to start owcimomd with
/etc/init.d/owcimomd start
Regards,
Ivan
