Simply restarting mmsysmon “mmsysmoncontrol restart” cleared the error – so I’m 
back to my basic question – why did this not clear on its own?

We’re not using LDAP for SMB, we’re using it for NFS – so gpfs.windbind isn’t 
active. As for the state of things:

[root@nrg-ces01 ~]# mmces state show -a
NODE                                AUTH       BLOCK      NETWORK   AUTH_OBJ   
NFS        OBJ        SMB        CES
xxxxxxxxx.xxxx.us.grid.nuance.com   DEGRADED   DISABLED   HEALTHY   DISABLED   
DEGRADED   DISABLED   DISABLED   DEGRADED
yyyyyyyyy.yyyy.us.grid.nuance.com   HEALTHY    DISABLED   HEALTHY   DISABLED   
HEALTHY    DISABLED   DISABLED   HEALTHY

NFS is showing degraded because AUTH is degraded due to the LDAP error. 
However, I think the error is erroneous because the NFS service on that node is 
fine.

You can either reboot that node, or try:

# systemctl restart gpfs-winbind.service
# systemctl status gpfs-winbind.service

The LDAP server was found unresponsive at some point.  Why, that’s the million 
dollar question as always.

What’s the output of ‘mmces state show -a’ look like?

Thanks,
Will

What caused this error, and how do clear this error? The LDAP server is fine as 
far as I can tell…

Scale version 5.0.1-2
