Summary:
Issue: Pre-Upgrade Health Check error during VNX OE for File upgrade-------------------------------------Errors-------------------------------------Storage System : Check for domain and federations health on VNXError HC_BE_14505017510: One of the VNX IP addresses is missing from the domain.Action : Contact your service provider and reference EMC Knowledgebase article emc273714.
Environment: Product : VNX Unified/FileProduct : Unisphere Service Manager (USM)EMC SW: VNX Operating Environment (OE) 7.0.35.3 and laterEMC SW: VNX Operating Environment (OE) for Block 05.31.000.5.502 or later
Cause: The latest VNX OE release contains a number of domain health-checks between the File and Block components. In thisscenario, the upgrade health-check failed because the SP host names were not correctly referenced in the ControlStation /etc/hosts file. In this particular example, the recommended actions in the health-check symptom statement arenot the correct steps to take to resolve the problem.
Resolution: Because the upgrade health-checks can generate a variety of different errors or warnings, and may in fact apply to morethan one scenario. Check this solution first before executing the recommendations outlined in emc273714 (kb78002).Scenario 1 : Check Unisphere domain listFirst run domain list to obtain current config for this array and ensure the CS is fused (that is, it is listed in the output), ifnot, follow emc273714 (kb78002) to fuse correctlyCommand : /nas/sbin/navicli -h spa domain -list
Example:
$ /nas/sbin/navicli -h spa domain -listNode: vnx-aIP Address: XX.XX.XX.XX (Master)Name: VNX_SPA_10Port: 80Secure Port: 443IP Address: XX.XX.XX.XXName: VNX_SPB_10Port: 80Secure Port: 443IP Address: XX.XX.XX.XXName: Celerra_vnx5300-aPort: 80Secure Port: 443
On a Dual control station environment, the above Celerra control station (In this example : Celerra_vnx5300-a) - Check ifthis is correct. If this details are for secondary control station, not for the primary control station, restarting the SPmanagement agent service like following will fix:
$ /nas/sbin/navicli -h spa networkadmin -restartcimom -o$ /nas/sbin/navicli -h spb networkadmin -restartcimom -o$ sleep 120$ /nas/sbin/navicli -h spa domain -list
And check the IP is re-updated to Primary control station, correctly. If so, another checkup will show this check as "Pass"and this issue is fixed (Same effect can be achived by control station reboots too)Scenario 2 : Check /etc/hosts for SP Alias

SPA and SPB (case sensitve/upper case) are the proper alias for integrated VNX systems. Examples of alias namesmissing or wrong from /etc/hosts file for the SPs:XX.XX.XXX.XX A_XXXXXXXXXXXXXX # CLARiiON SPXX.XX.XXX.XX B_XXXXXXXXXXXXXX # CLARiiON SPXX.XX.XXX.XX A_XXXXXXXXXXXXXX spa # CLARiiON SP
