UCS Central Logon Screen Domain Dropdown Greyed Out

[Matthew Tandy]

Hi,

I am not sure if anyone else has experienced the same issues but I am seeing the domain box on the logon screen greyed out.

UCS Central 1.2(1f)

I can however login using Active Directory credentials via SSH and by manually typing in the credentials as below:

Username: ucs-DOMAIN\Username

Thanks in advance for your help

I think I have resolved this issue. I only posted the question today and have been looking at it on and off for a couple of weeks. Turns out that I had to do the following procedure and it fixed the issue:

1) Shutdown Primary Node (Node A)

connect local-mgmt

shutdown

2) Force Primary to Node B

show cluster extended-state

Wait for cluster to recognise Node A is down

cluster force primary

3) Power on Node A

4) Shutdown Node B

connect local-mgmt

shutdown

5) Force Primary to Node A

show cluster extended-state

Wait for cluster to recognise Node B is down

cluster force primary

6) Power on Node B

I have also ran this procedure today and it worked

1) Shutdown Primary Node (Node A)

connect local-mgmt

shutdown

2) Force Primary to Node B

show cluster extended-state

Wait for cluster to recognise Node A is down

cluster force primary

3) Power on Node A

4) Shutdown Node B

connect local-mgmt

shutdown

5) Force Primary to Node A

show cluster extended-state

Wait for cluster to recognise Node B is down

cluster force primary

6) Power on Node B

Do 1 last final check on the cluster state

show cluster extended-state

Turns out this also happens if you replace your LDAP providers with new ones and delete the old ones

Procedure was

• Create new LDAP Providers
• Add new LDAP Providers to existing LDAP Provider Group
• Remove old LDAP Providers from existing group
• Delete old LDAP Providers

Once this had been completed, the login box was greyed out again. This issue was also on UCS Central 1.2(1f)
