Troubleshooting the Solaris Management Console

Before using this troubleshooting procedure, make sure that the following packages are installed:

  • SUNWmc – Solaris Management Console 2.1 (Server Components)

  • SUNWmcc – Solaris Management Console 2.1 (Client Components)

  • SUNWmccom – Solaris Management Console 2.1 (Common Components)

  • SUNWmcdev – Solaris Management Console 2.1 (Development Kit)

  • SUNWmcex – Solaris Management Console 2.1 (Examples)

  • SUNWwbmc – Solaris Management Console 2.1 (WBEM Components)

These packages provide the basic Solaris Management Console launcher. You must install the SUNWCprog cluster to use the Solaris Management Console and all of its tools.

How to Troubleshoot the Solaris Management Console

The client and the server are started automatically when you start the Solaris Management Console.

If the console is visible and you are having trouble running the tools, it might be that the server might not be running. Or, the server might be in a problem state that can be resolved by stopping and restarting it.

  1. Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.
  2. Determine whether the console server is running.
    # /etc/init.d/init.wbem status

    If the console server is running, you should see a message similar the following:

    SMC server version 2.1.0 running on port 898.
  3. If the console server is not running, start it.
    # /etc/init.d/init.wbem start

    After a short time, you should see a message similar to the following:

    SMC server is ready.
  4. If the server is running and you are still having problems, stop the console server. Then, restart it.
    1. Stop the console server.
      # /etc/init.d/init.wbem stop

      You should see a message similar to the following:

      Shutting down SMC server on port 898.
    2. Start the console server.
      # /etc/init.d/init.wbem start
