Summary

Attempting to recover a server using Bare Metal Recovery (BMR) fails to get the listing of qtrees, after entering the username and password.

 

 

Symptoms

 

 

Reviewing the ndmpd log shows NDMP_CONNECT_CLIENT_AUTH.

 

 

 

Resolution

 

 

This occurs when the filer only has HTTPS enabled (example "httpd.admin.ssl.enable" set to on). The NetApp API (application programming interface) being used requires http to authenticate to the filer.

 

 

To enable HTTP, telnet to the filer and issue the below command:

options httpd.admin.enable on

Next verify the setting has changed by issuing the options http command.

Example output after the change::

options http

httpd.access legacy

httpd.admin.access legacy

httpd.admin.enable on

httpd.admin.hostsequiv.enable off

httpd.admin.ssl.enable on

httpd.autoindex.enable on

httpd.enable on

httpd.log.format common

httpd.rootdir /vol/vol0/home/http

httpd.timeout 300

httpd.timewait.enable off
