An attempt to join a domain failed.

An attempt to join a Windows domain has failed.

The number one cause of failing to join a domain is a significant difference in the system time on the Windows domain controller and the SteelHead. When the time on the domain controller and the SteelHead don’t match, this error message appears:

We recommend using NTP time synchronization to synchronize the client and server clocks. It is critical that the SteelHead time is the same as the time on the Active Directory controller. Sometimes an NTP server is down or inaccessible, in which case there can be a time difference. You can also disable NTP if it isn’t being used and manually set the time. You must also verify that the time zone is correct.

A domain join can fail when the DNS server returns an invalid IP address for the domain controller. When a DNS misconfiguration occurs during an attempt to join a domain, these error messages appear:

Additionally, the domain join alarm triggers and messages similar to the following appear in the logs:

Oct 13 14:47:06 bravo-sh81 rcud[10014]: [rcud/main/.ERR] - {- -} Failed to join domain: failed to find DC for domain GEN-VCS78DOM.COM

When you encounter this error, go to the Networking > Networking: Host Settings page and verify that the DNS settings are correct.

admissionMapiError
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.60)

Degraded

New MAPI connections will be passed through due to high connection count.

The total number of MAPI optimized connections have exceeded the maximum admission control threshold. By default, the maximum admission control threshold is 85 percent of the total maximum optimized connection count for the client-side SteelHead. The SteelHead reserves the remaining 15 percent so the MAPI admission control doesn’t affect the other protocols. The 85 percent threshold is applied only to MAPI connections.

RiOS is now passing through MAPI connections from new clients but continues to intercept and optimize MAPI connections from existing clients (including new MAPI connections from these clients).

RiOS continues optimizing non-MAPI connections from all clients.

This alarm is disabled by default.

The alarm automatically clears when the MAPI traffic has decreased; however, it can take one minute for the alarm to clear.

RiOS pre-emptively closes MAPI sessions to reduce the connection count in an attempt to bring the SteelHead out of admission control by bringing the connection count below the 85 percent threshold. RiOS closes the MAPI sessions in this order:

Check that the upgrade image is correct for your SteelHead.

Verify that the upgrade image isn’t corrupt. You can use the MD5 checksum tool provided on the Riverbed Support site for the verification.

After you have confirmed that the image isn’t corrupt, upgrade the RiOS software again. If the upgrade continues to fail, contact Riverbed Support.

licenseExpiring
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.66)

Needs Attention

One or more licensed features will expire within the next two weeks.

Choose Administration > Maintenance: Licenses and look at the Status column to see which licenses are about to expire. One or more feature licenses are scheduled to expire within two weeks.

This alarm is triggered per feature. Suppose you installed two license keys for a feature, LK1-FOO-xxx, which is going to expire in two weeks, and LK1-FOO-yyy, which isn’t expired. Because one license for the feature is valid, the alarm doesn’t trigger.

licenseExpired
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.67)

Degraded

One or more licensed features have expired.

Choose Administration > Maintenance: Licenses and look at the Status column to see which licenses have expired. One or more feature licenses have expired.

This alarm is triggered per feature. Suppose you installed two license keys for a feature, LK1-FOO-xxx (expired), and LK1-FOO-yyy (not expired). Because one license for the feature is valid, the alarm doesn’t trigger.

clusterDisconnectedSHAlertError
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.68)

Degraded

A cluster SteelHead has been reported as disconnected.

Choose Networking > Network Integration: Connection Forwarding and verify the configuration for both this SteelHead and the neighbor SteelHead. Verify that the neighbor is reachable from this SteelHead.

Verify that a delegate user has been added to the SteelHead and is configured with the appropriate privileges.

linkDuplex
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.70)

 

Degraded

An interface on the appliance is in half-duplex mode

Indicates that an interface was not configured for half-duplex negotiation but has negotiated half-duplex mode. Half-duplex significantly limits the optimization service results.

Choose Networking > Networking: Base Interfaces and examine the SteelHead link configuration. Next, examine the peer switch user interface to check its link configuration. If the configuration on one side is different from the other, traffic is sent at different rates on each side, causing many collisions.

To troubleshoot, change both interfaces to automatic duplex negotiation. If the interfaces don’t support automatic duplex, configure both ends for full duplex.

linkIoErrors
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.71)

 

Degraded

An interface on the appliance is suffering I/O errors

Indicates that the error rate on an interface has exceeded 0.1 percent while either sending or receiving packets. This threshold is based on the observation that even a small link error rate reduces TCP throughput significantly. A properly configured LAN connection should experience few errors. The alarm clears when the error rate drops below 0.05 percent.

To troubleshoot, try a new cable and a different switch port. Another possible cause is electromagnetic noise nearby.

You can change the default alarm thresholds by entering the alarm link_errors err-threshold xxxxxx CLI command at the system prompt. For details, see the Riverbed Command-Line Interface Reference Manual.

storageProfSwitchFailed
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.73)

Either Critical or Needs Attention, depending on the state

 

Storage profile switch has failed.

An error has occurred while repartitioning the disk drives during a storage profile switch. A profile switch changes the disk space allocation on the drives, clears the SteelFusion and VSP data stores, and repartitions the data stores to the appropriate sizes.

You switch a storage profile by entering the disk-config layout CLI command at the system prompt or by choosing Administration > System Settings: Disk Management on an EX or EX+SteelFusion SteelHead and selecting a storage profile.

These reasons can cause a profile switch to fail:

When you encounter this error, switch the storage profile again. If the switch succeeds, the error clears. If it fails, RiOS reverts the SteelHead to the previous storage profile.

clusterIpv6IncompatiblePeerError
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.74)

Degraded

The optimization service has encountered a peer SteelHead IPv6 incompatibility. The message indicates the reason for the condition:

flashProtectionFailed
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.75)

Critical

Flash disk hasn't been backed up due to not enough free space on /var filesystem.

Indicates that the USB flash drive has not been backed up because there isn’t enough available space in the /var filesystem directory.

Examine the /var directory to see if it is storing an excessive amount of snapshots, system dumps, or TCP dumps that you could delete. You could also delete any RiOS images that you no longer use.

datastoreNeedClean
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.76)

Critical

The data store needs to be cleaned.

You need to clear the RiOS data store. To clear the data store, choose Administration > Maintenance: Services and select the Clear Data Store check box before restarting the appliance.

Clearing the data store degrades performance until the system repopulates the data.

pathSelectionPathDown
(enterprises.17163.1.1.4.0.77)

Degraded
