To fix the references, download the latest Support tools (swarm-support-tools.tgz), which includes the corrected CentOS-Base-6.repo file, and put it in the CSN’s /etc/yum.repos.d folder.

  • SNMP errors related to _ifXTable_container_row_restore. In some cases errors similar to the following might display when installing CSN: error finding row index in _ifXTable_container_row_restore. This error is harmless and can be ignored. See Red Hat bug 736264.

  • Messages to Ignore during Installation and Initial Configuration. During the NIC portion of initial configuration, messages similar to 'eth0 NIC Copper Link is Down' may display. Service Fail messages might display before CSN reboots after CSN is installed and initially configured. Additionally, there may be logged errors related to an inability to resolve FQDN names. These messages are all harmless having to do with either interim system status as the configuration is applied or timing related states that are retried. The messages can safely be ignored.

  • Clean System Start State. The CSN assumes a clean system start state prior to installation, with no previous network configuration of NICs and ports. In particular, manual pre-configuration of NIC aliases (ifcfg-eth1:1) may lead to unexpected network behavior on the CSN as the network configuration performed during installation are not aware of the pre-configured aliases.

  • RedHat Administrative Tool Compatibility. Both the RedHat Network Administration Tool and the RedHat Security Level Configuration Tool are incompatible with the CSN because they alter the expected location and/or configuration of critical network and firewall configuration files, possibly interfering with initial CSN configuration or communications. To prevent conflicts, these tools are removed during installation of the CSN.

  • SELinux Errors. While SELinux is run in permissive mode during the bootstrap process, SELinux errors may still appear during bootstrap. These errors can be safely ignored and do not occur again after a system reboot.

  • Monit Configuration. The monit watchdog process is carefully configured on the CSN to ensure compatibility with different products and services. Manual configuration of monit parameters is not supported.

  • SSH Delays Logging into CSN. Administrators may see delays logging into the CSN via SSH if there are any non-existent or unreachable DNS servers specified in the resolv.conf file. Adding a "UseDNS no" line to the /etc/ssh/sshd_config should remove the delay.
