When I try to start a physical linux node by 'Tools - Wakeup node' I get this error in NetXMS Management Console (on Windows 64bit):
'Wake node' has encountered a problem
Cannot send wake-on-LAN packet to node: No MAC address on interface
But there is a MAC address on interface eth0 in NetXMS and other Wake-on-LAN tools can start the same target machine.
(NetXMS 1.2.17)
Hi,
I've registered it as a bug. We'll take a look.
Best regards,
Victor
Does this node have other interfaces and does they have not zero MAC?
There are only 2 interfaces, the 'eth0' with a MAC-address and the loopback 'lo' with 00:00:00:00:00:00.
Thank you! Were taking incorrect interface. I'll fix.
Fix will be in next release.
Thanks Tatjana. I will test it.
I just tested this issue in V2.0-M1. Still not working.
Error Message:
'Wakeup node' has encountered a problem.
Cannot send wake-on-LAN packet to node: Communication failure
So still "Wakeup node" works for interface and does not work for node?
both doesn't work for me. With other WakeOnLAN-Tool it works.
Finally fixed. Will be included in next release.
Hi Tatjana
I can confirm, Wake-On-LAN is now working on the node- and on the interface-object.
One appendix:
If the node is 'unmanaged' in NetXMS you still get the error "Cannot send wake-on-LAN packet to node: No interface for sending magic packet". I don't know whether this is intended. It would be nice to use it however.
Does node have at leas one not loopback interface with valid IP address?
yes, of course. Otherwise wake-on-LAN with managed node would not be possible. That works now.
But if the (same) node is set 'unmanaged' in NetXMS, wake-on-LAN is not possible. But that would be helpful.
Fix will be included in next release.
thanks for that!
