General database error retrieving information (Link Controller ISSUE)

Dear all

 

 

I am configuring Link Controller for inbound and outbound load balancing.

 

 

Local Traffic portion of configuration working fine. (i.e. Virtual Servers, Pools and all) but when i configure Link Controller portion of configuration, its not working.

 

 

i am trying to create Links and WideIps but not successful.

 

 

i think my Link Controller Module is not communicating with Local Traffic Module.

 

 

when i used following command

 

 

[root@lc:Active] config bigip_add self

 

Retrieving remote and installing local BIG-IP's SSL certs ...

 

Enter root password for self if prompted

 

ssh: self: Temporary failure in name resolution

 

ERROR: Can't read remote cert via /usr/bin/ssh.

 

 

==> Done <==

 

[root@lc:Active] config

 

 

 

Can any one help me to solve this

 

 

 

Thanks in advance

  • Hi,

     

     

    It looks like 'self' isn't recognized as a host on your unit. bigip_add expects an IP address or resolve-able hostname. You could use localhost or 127.0.0.1.

     

     

    Out of curiosity, why are you running bigip_add against the local unit?

     

     

    Also, the title of your post mentions a general database error. I assume you're seeing this in the GUI when trying to access a configuration section. Which section is that? What are the errors logged in /var/log/webui.log when you get the error?
