VCMP guest management access problems

  I am having connectivity issues to some vCMP guests I am working on.     The setup is two Viprion 2400 chassis with two B2100 blades in each. Each Viprion is running three vCMP guests...

Think I managed to get to the bottom of this. The blade in Slot 2 of one of the Viprions was caught in a reboot loop and not playing it's full part in vCMP. I think it was periodically announcing it's own management port MAC address on to the network with the cluster management IP and as a result we were seeing loss of maanagement access 8-S I powered the blade off and magically the problem disappeared.

 

 

The plan is to try and rebuild the blade starting with a diskinit and failing that...RMA.
