BTC1048E The common agent failed to renew its
certificate revocation list.
Explanation: The common agent failed to renew its
certificate revocation list with the certificate authority
of the agent manager. One of the following reasons
might be the cause of the failure:
v The certificate revocation list port of the agent
manager cannot be reached, either because the agent
manager is not active, an error exists in the network
configuration, or the service location information
stored in the common agent properties file is
incorrect.
v An error occurred on the agent manager while
constructing a new certificate revocation list.
System
action: The common agent will continue to
run with its existing certificate revocation list. However,
various components, for example, resource managers
with revoked certificates will be able to successfully
contact the common agent and invoke operations on
the common agent.
Administrator Response: Attempt to determine if the
certificate revocation list renewal failed because the
common agent was not able to reach the certificate
revocation list port of the agent manager. Check the
traceAgent.log file for exceptions and messages.
If the log indicates that the common agent was not able
to contact the certificate revocation list port of the agent
manager, do the following:
v Make sure the agent manager is up and running.
v Make sure the location information stored in the
common agent properties file is correct.
v Make sure the agent manager can be reached from
the common agent using the host name specified in
the common agent properties file.
v Make another attempt to renew the certificate
revocation list.
If the log indicates that a problem occurred on the
agent manager, check the agent manager log file for
associated exceptions and error messages. If the
problem persists, contact customer support.
BTC1049E The common agent failed to reset its
GUID and security credentials.
Explanation: The common agent failed to reset its
operating system GUID and register for a new
certificate. This message appears if one of the following
conditions is met:
v An error occurred while resetting the operating
system GUID.
v The registration port of the agent manager could not
be reached because either the agent manager is not
active, an error exists involving network
configuration, or the service location information
stored in the common agent properties file is
incorrect.
v The common agent does not trust the agent manager
certificate authority because the current certificate
used by the agent manager certificate authority does
not exist in the common agent truststore.
v The common agent made another attempt to register
with the incorrect registration password.
System
action: The common agent will continue to
run with its existing credentials. Depending on whether
or not the operating system GUID was successfully set,
those credentials might be not valid because the
identification information stored in the certificate might
not match the information of the common agent and its
underlying system. Credentials that are not valid will
not block components from successfully contacting the
common agent. However, the common agent will be
unable to invoke operations on the agent manager that
require client authentication For example, renewing
certificates and sending status updates will not be
allowed.
Administrator Response: Examine the traceAgent.log
trace output file and attempt to determine which one of
the conditions mentioned in the explanation invoked
the message.
If the log indicates that the common agent was not able
to contact the registration port of the agent manager, do
the following:
v Make sure the agent manager is up and running.
v Make sure the location information stored in the
common agent properties file is correct.
v Make sure the agent manager can be reached from
the common agent using the host name specified in
the common agent properties file.
v Make another attempt to register the common agent.
If the log indicates that the SSL handshake between the
common agent and agent manager failed because the
common agent did not trusting the agent manager,
attempt to resolve the problem by doing the following:
1. Shutdown the common agent.
2. Backup and delete the contents of the cert directory.
3. Place the agentTrust.jks file from the agent manager
in the empty cert directory.
4. Start the common agent. Because the
cert/agentKeys.jks file is missing, it will attempt to
register. If the common agent has the correct
registration password, the registration should be
successful, and the common agent should receive a
new certificate.
If the agent manager rejected the password supplied by
the common agent, update the Registration.Server.PW
property in the common agent properties file, and
attempt to register again.
