The
initialize or create system operation has failed because a valid new
system identifier (ID) cannot be assigned.
Explanation
You
cannot initialize or create a system on an enclosure that is already
defined as part of a system. A system ID is defined when a system
is initialized or created. Either the enclosure already has a system
ID defined, or the next system ID on the enclosure midplane is not
valid. This condition can occur if a system had previously been created
and deleted, but the vital product data (VPD) has not been cleared.
User response
Ensure that a node on which
you attempt to initialize or create a system is not already defined
as a system. Ensure that an enclosure
on which you attempt to initialize or create a system is not already
defined as a system. If a system had previously been created
and is now deleted, clear the previous system ID by submitting the
command
satask chenclosurevpd -resetclusterid.
