R80 FWM process failure


Hello All,

Installed R80 MDS on VMware ESXi, 8 Gigs RAM and 4 cores/40 Gig HDD. Initial Wizard worked just fine as well as Gaia Portal, but when I try to connect via SmartConsole, I see following:

When I logged into Expert mode, I can see following output, seems like FWM process is not loaded or badly crashed:

cpwd.jpg

When I am trying to launch FWM manually with DEBUGGING enabled it fails with some non-Google-able output, see attached screenshot.

Did anyone see anything like it? I am thinking about fresh installation as the only way out of this...

Hi

Have you got anywhere with this? Our situation is that we added a new take to upgrade the managers and now the secondary is unresponsive as a Checkpoint device.... it is manageable but the fwm process is not running and will not start.

Thanks

Hi

we've had the same problem on R80.20, just solved it.

You must rename your managemet server, hostname must not start with CP_MGMT, either lower or upper case.

Go to expert mode and execute "more $FWDIR/log/fwm.elg". You should see the following message:

write_using_CPMI_and_add_to_downgrade_hash: Update failed: Illegal name for 'CP_MGMT_R80' @ 'network_objects' - Object name can not start with 'cp_mgmt'

We changed hostname to something else (originally ours was CP_MGMT_R80 as you can see in the message above), rebooted the managemet server and it solved the problem. It took some time for server to start, even after "cpwd_admin list" showed all processes in E state (executing).

Best regards
