  1. Stop flexVDI Agent

    Code Block
    # service flexvdi-agent stop


  2. Unregister the host: remove the file that stores the registration key.

    Code Block
    # rm /etc/flexvdi/flexvdi-agent-key


  3. Then you can run flexvdi-config and register the Host with the flexVDI Manager.
  4. Start flexvdi-agent again, so that it loads the new configuration

    Code Block
    # service flexvdi-agent start


  5. Login each host, run flexvdi-config, and run the "Manager->Refresh keys" option.
Q: Connecting to host with ssh is slow (10 seconds). Creating new guests takes 10 seconds too. flexVDI-Client  fails to connect to stopped guests with a timeout.

Q: OCFS2 volume is not mounted, and it was working until the last reboot.

If flexvdi-agent.log shows lines like:

Code Block
[01/Jan/2021:01:02:03] [WARN] vol_mon: Cannot mount primary disk /dev/sdc 

And dmesg shows:

Code Block
[471392.669767] o2net: Connected to node labnode01 (num 0) at 10.200.100.8:7777
[471398.669537] o2net: No longer connected to node labnode01 (num 0) at 10.200.100.8:7777

Probably the problem is that a new kernel has been installed, but a OCFS2 kernel for the current kernel version has not been installed.

Check if ocfs2 kernel module is running with:

Code Block
[root@flexdev02 ~]# lsmod | grep ocfs2
ocfs2                1058079  1
jbd2                  107478  1 ocfs2
ocfs2_dlmfs            23358  1
ocfs2_stack_o2cb       13279  1
ocfs2_dlm             165899  1 ocfs2_stack_o2cb
ocfs2_nodemanager     223720  12 ocfs2,ocfs2_stack_o2cb,ocfs2_dlmfs,ocfs2_dlm
ocfs2_stackglue        17171  3 ocfs2,ocfs2_stack_o2cb,ocfs2_dlmfs

You should see a line starting with ocfs2. If you don't, you are missing the ocfs2 kernel module required to mount ocfs2 filesystems. Information about installing it is available at Updating flexVDI software
