Title: Error Creating Node: Object Already Exists
Post by: pace on April 15, 2015, 10:21:09 PM
I'm trying to create a node that I will then use to monitor a network service.  This node is the head of a load balancer (I'm trying to make sure the site is running).  The problem is that I'm using Direct Server Response and the IP address of this load balancer head is in use on all the web servers (this is the appropriate configuration for DSR).  I'm getting the "object already exists" message because the IP address is attached to all the web servers and it isn't letting me create the node because of that.

What is the suggested remedy to this?


Thanks!

Hi,

do you have LB address on separate interfaces of web servers? If yes, you can mark those interfaces as "excluded from topology".

Best regards,
Victor

I did as you recommended, but I still cannot create the object.  Additionally, I created a node named something specific ("test.test.com" for example).  I then deleted it.  Then I tried to recreate it and I get the "Object Exists" message.

Hi,

try to restart server after you mark interfaces. There may be a bug that keeps interfaces in internal indexes even after you set exclude from topology option.

Best regards,
