Hey toasters,

 

anyone ever experienced such messages in the event log? Mines are getting flooded here.

It’s a 4-Node cluster (9.6P1) and someone forgot to enable CDP on two of the nodes, which (according to the syslog translator) might seem to be the reason for this issue.

The source is currently connected to CLUSTER-sw02 remote device and the destination is currently connected to - remote device.

The corrective action in this link just says:

„Ensure that the Cisco Discover Protocol (CDP) is running on the nodes and switches. In addition, ensure that the cluster ports are up and the cluster LIFs are configured and hosted according to the suggested cluster configuration."

 

I’ve enabled CDP now for all nodes, cluster ports are up and all the lifs are where they should be.

Do I need to restart this CSM service or something like that in order to retry CDP resolution and get rid of this message?

 

Thanks,
