Overview
Prior to the SBC 10.0 release, when duplicate IP Peers were configured, there was a mismatch between the CDB configuration and the application. The CDB accepted duplicate IP Peers, as the IP Peer name was case sensitive prior to the SBC 10.0 release.
For example, the CDB accepts PEER1 and peer1 as two different IP peers, but the application accepts only the IP Peer that was created first.
To address this problem, from SBC 10.0 release onwards, the IP Peer names are made case insensitive. For example, both the names PEER1 and peer1 point to the same object.
Run the following procedure before upgrading to SBC 10.0. This is because after upgrading to SBC 10.0, you cannot delete duplicate IP Peers.
Run the following procedure even otherwise (not only before upgrading to 10.0) to rectify the duplicate IP Peer issue mentioned above.
Procedure
To resolve a duplicated IP Peer issue, follow the steps below.
Step 1: Copy script to the SBC
Use the following script (i.e., copy the script into the file dupIpPeerCheck.sh
as user root
), and then change the file permissions using the command chmod 700
dupIpPeerCheck.sh
.
Download script file: dupIpPeerCheck.sh script.txt
#!/bin/bash staging=/tmp installLog=$staging/dupIpPeerCheck.out runValidateConfig() { status=0 echo -e "\n===========================================================================================================================\n" | tee -a $installLog echo " Starting configuration validation for duplicate ipPeer..." | tee -a $installLog `/opt/sonus/sbx/tailf/bin/confd_load -F p -P /addressContext/zone/ipPeer/name | grep -A 1 "http://sonusnet.com/ns/mibs/SONUS-IP-PEER/1.0" | grep name | cut -d ">" -f 2 | cut -d "<" -f 1 | sort | uniq -Di > $staging/duplicateIpPeerList`; if [ ! -s $staging/duplicateIpPeerList ]; then echo " No duplicate IpPeers found..." | tee -a $installLog `/bin/rm -f $staging/duplicateIpPeerList > /dev/null 2>&1` else status=1 echo " Found duplicate ipPeer. Please delete the following ipPeers..." | tee -a $installLog echo " " cat $staging/duplicateIpPeerList | tee -a $installLog fi echo -e "\n===========================================================================================================================\n" | tee -a $installLog if [ $status -eq 0 ]; then echo " Configuration passed validation - No duplicate IpPeer found. ok to proceed with SW upgrade..." | tee -a $installLog else echo " Configuration failed validation, duplicate ipPeer found. Please contact Sonus TAC before performing SW upgrade..." | tee -a $installLog fi echo -e "\n===========================================================================================================================\n" | tee -a $installLog } /bin/rm -f $staging/duplicateIpPeerList > /dev/null 2>&1 runValidateConfig echo "Validation completed." echo "" echo "" exit 0
Step 2: Run the script
Log on as root user and run the dupIpPeerCheck.sh
script.
[root@vsbcSystem-vsbc1 tmp]# sh dupIpPeerCheck.sh
Step 3: Examine the output of the script
The script output for validating IP Peer is shown in the terminal. Alternatively, you can examine it later in the log file in the path /tmp/dupIpPeerCheck.out
.
Step 4: If there is a failure, check the corresponding files for the IP Peer lists
If the SIP IP Peer validation fails then the file /tmp/duplicateSipIpPeeerList
is generated.
Step 5: Delete all the IP Peers listed in the corresponding list file
Delete all the duplicate IP Peers listed in the corresponding list file. Recreate the necessary IP Peers as required.
