Often this is a side effect of incorrect installation of the node. For example running local installation without specifying HPOM server and certificate server.
|
On managed node do following: goto /opt/OV/bin/
./ovconfchg -ns sec.core.auth -set CERTIFICATE_SERVER hostname_of_HPOM_server
then ./ovc -kill ./ovc -start
You can detect tthis condition indirectly (opcmsgi service fails) or directory running command
You can also manually edit the on your (agent) machine:
> ovconfchg -edit
Search for: [sec.cm.client]
And add this line:
CERTIFICATE_SERVER=<your OM server name>
Then the certificate request should work.

What can be the reason for getting this error?
I am using OVOW version 8.10.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- you forgot to mention certificate server. This is your HPOVO management server from which your are managing nodes......

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I would like to add following:
On unix nodes i use following command to install agent which contains 'HPOVO management server' as management server & 'HPOVO management server' as certificate server.
For UNIX Nodes[linux, Solaris, HP-Unix] HTTPS-Agent Installation command is: ./opc_inst -srv predator.icd.teradyne.com -cert_srv predator.icd.teradyne.com
For MS-Windows HTTPS-Agent installation command is:
cscript opc_inst.vbs -srv predator.icd.teradyne.com -cert_srv predator.icd.teradyne.com
Note: Here 'srv' is for HPOVO management server & 'cert_srv' is for Certificate server.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now there are two ways to troubleshoot:
1. Reinstall agent & Reconfigured it in HPOVO
2. Or Try following
On managed node do following: goto /opt/OV/bin/
./ovconfchg -ns sec.core.auth -set CERTIFICATE_SERVER hostname_of_HPOM_server
then ./ovc -kill ./ovc -start
