5. Attempt to determine what caused the nodes to
shut down.
Possible Cause-FRUs or other:
v None

The available battery charge is not
enough to allow the node canister to
start. Two batteries are charging.
Explanation: The battery charge within the enclosure
is not sufficient for the node to safely become active in
a cluster. The node will not start until sufficient charge
exists to store the state and configuration data held in
the node canister memory if power were to fail. Two
batteries are within the enclosure, one in each of the
power supplies. Neither of the batteries indicate an
error–both are charging.
The node will start automatically when sufficient
charge is available. The batteries do not have to be
fully charged before the nodes can become active.
Both nodes within the enclosure share the battery
charge, so both node canisters report this error.
The service assistant shows the estimated start time in
the node canister hardware details.
Possible Cause-FRUs or other:
v None
User response: Wait for the node to automatically fix
the error when sufficient charge becomes available.
Possible Cause-FRUs or other:

The available battery charge is not
enough to allow the node canister to
start. One battery is charging.
Explanation: The battery charge within the enclosure
is not sufficient for the node to safely become active in
a cluster. The node will not start until sufficient charge
exists to store the state and configuration data held in
the node canister memory if power were to fail. Two
batteries are within the enclosure, one in each of the
power supplies. Only one of the batteries is charging,
so the time to reach sufficient charge will be extended.
The node will start automatically when sufficient
charge is available. The batteries do not have to be
fully charged before the nodes can become active.
Both nodes within the enclosure share the battery
charge, so both node canisters report this error.
The service assistant shows the estimated start time,
and the battery status, in the node canister hardware
details.
Possible Cause-FRUs or other:
v None

User response:
1. Wait for the node to automatically fix the error
when sufficient charge becomes available.
2. If possible, determine why one battery is not
charging. Use the battery status shown in the node
canister hardware details and the indicator LEDs on
the PSUs in the enclosure to diagnose the problem.
If the issue cannot be resolved, wait until the cluster
is operational and use the troubleshooting options
in the management GUI to assist in resolving the
issue.
Possible Cause-FRUs or other:
v Battery (33%)
v Control power supply (33%)
v Power cord (33%)

The available battery charge is not
enough to allow the node canister to
start. No batteries are charging.
Explanation: A node cannot be in active state if it is
not ready to store configuration and cache data from
memory to internal disk after a power failure. Broken
or missing batteries can be the cause. One charged
battery is sufficient for system startup but two batteries
can reduce startup time.
User response: Follow troubleshooting procedures to
fix hardware:
1. Resolve problems in both batteries.
2. If no power supply or battery exists within the
enclosure that is reporting an error on its LEDs,
power off both power supplies in the enclosure and
remove the power cords. Wait 20 seconds, then
replace the power cords and restore power to both
power supplies. If both node canisters continue to
report this error replace the enclosure chassis.
Possible Cause-FRUs or other:
v Battery (33%)
v Power supply (33%)
v Power cord (33%)
v Enclosure chassis (1%)

The node is held in the service state.
Explanation: The node is in service state, and has
been instructed to remain in service state. While in
service state, it will not run as part of a cluster. A node
must not be in service state for longer than necessary
while the cluster is online because a loss of redundancy
will result. A node can be set to remain in service state
either because of a service assistant user action or
because the node was deleted from the cluster.
User response: Exit service state to allow the node to
continue.
