hi, i today stumbled across a problem in the external/rackpdu stonith plugin:
my outlets are named: > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.1 = STRING: "Outlet 1 XL" > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.2 = STRING: "b" > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.3 = STRING: "m" > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.4 = STRING: "Outlet 17 XL" > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.5 = STRING: "kxxxxxx xx - vienna1" > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.6 = STRING: "l.i.a" > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.7 = STRING: "w2" > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.8 = STRING: "k" > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.9 = STRING: "i" rackpdu tries to get the names via snmp and then cycles each array to check which outlet to shoot: > local names=`echo "$snmp_result" | cut -f2 -d'"' | tr ' ' '_' | tr '\012' ' '` basically, this command cuts the string between the two "", replaces whitespaces with _ and replaces. i get the following error: > # stonith -t external/rackpdu hostlist="w2" pduip=pdu.ipax.at community=abc > -T reset w2 > local: 280: kxxxxxx_xx_-_vienna1: bad variable name > external/rackpdu[30287]: ERROR: Outlet number not found for node w2. Result: > iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.1 = STRING: > ... > ... all in all, i found two problematic lines in my setup which both generate such an error. >> iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.5 = STRING: "kxxxxxx xx - vienna1" >> iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.3.3.1.1.2.6 = STRING: "l.i.a" rackpdu uses /bin/sh (which is dash 0.5.5.1-7.4 on debian squeeze). changing /bin/sh to /bin/bash solves this issue. upon investigation, i found http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=598239 i changed the offending line: -local names=`echo "$snmp_result" | cut -f2 -d'"' | tr ' ' '_' | tr '\012' ' '` +local names="`echo \"$snmp_result\" | cut -f2 -d'\"' | tr ' ' '_' | tr '\012' ' '`" this solves the issue for dash. please find sample scripts attached. is there any better way to solve this issue? thanks, raoul -- ____________________________________________________________________ DI (FH) Raoul Bhatia M.Sc. email. r.bha...@ipax.at Technischer Leiter IPAX - Aloy Bhatia Hava OG web. http://www.ipax.at Barawitzkagasse 10/2/2/11 email. off...@ipax.at 1190 Wien tel. +43 1 3670030 FN 277995t HG Wien fax. +43 1 3670030 15 ____________________________________________________________________
