Command /usr/sbin/pvmdrmgr drmgr -c slot -s 'U9119.MHE.1085B07-V1-C1030' -a -w 3 returned 19. Additional messages: /usr/sbin/pvmdrmgr drmgr -c slot -s 'U9119.MHE.1085B07-V1-C1030' -a -w 3 Validating I/O DLPAR capability...yes. kernel I/O op failed, rc = 26 len = 26. I have been looking through the logs on this system to piece together what is happening when the dlpar add failures occur. From what I am seeing we are trying to dlpar add a virtual network device and getting a error when trying to add the device to the system. > ########## May 17 05:18:00 2017 ########## > drmgr: -c slot -s U9119.MHE.1085B07-V1-C1030 -a -w 3 > Validating I/O DLPAR capability...yes. > Getting node types 0x00000003 > Could not find DRC property group in path: /proc/device-tree/ibm,serial. > Acquiring drc index 0x30000406 > get-sensor for 30000406: 0, 2 > Setting allocation state to 'alloc usable' > Setting indicator state to 'unisolate' > Configuring connector for drc index 30000406 > Adding device-tree node /proc/device-tree/vdevice/l-lan@30000406 > ofdt update: add_node /vdevice/l-lan@30000406 ibm,loc-code 30 U9119.MHE.1085B07-V1-C1030-T1 > Getting node types 0x00000003 > performing kernel op for U9119.MHE.1085B07-V1-C1030, file is /sys/bus/pci/slots/control/add_slot > kernel I/O op failed, rc = 26 len = 26. > No such device > Releasing drc index 0x30000406 > get-sensor for 30000406: 0, 1 > Setting isolation state to 'isolate' > Setting allocation state to 'alloc unusable' > get-sensor for 30000406: 0, 2 > drc_index 30000406 sensor-state: 2 > Resource is not available to the partition. > Removing device-tree node /proc/device-tree/vdevice/l-lan@30000406 > ########## May 17 05:20:11 2017 ########## From the drmgr log, you can see that we get a ENODEV return code when performing the kernel operation to add the device to the system. > performing kernel op for U9119.MHE.1085B07-V1-C1030, file is /sys/bus/pci/slots/control/add_slot > kernel I/O op failed, rc = 26 len = 26. > No such device This indicates that the rpadlpar_io kernel modules was unable to find the device in the device tree. This doesn not seem right because earlier in the drmgr logs we add the device to the device tree. Additionally, the drmgr code validates that the add succeeds by retrieveing the newly added device node from the device tree as a sanity check. There are no failures reported for this. > Adding device-tree node /proc/device-tree/vdevice/l-lan@30000406 > ofdt update: add_node /vdevice/l-lan@30000406 ibm,loc-code 30 U9119.MHE.1085B07-V1-C1030-T1 > Getting node types 0x00000003 I started scale-up testing and I could see deploys are going fine. Will post a comment here if I see further drmgr failures.
