  • 1.  Dxtoolkit not working for us after migrate to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.9

    Posted 07-05-2024 02:24:00 PM

    One of our server were migrate from redhat 7 to redhat 8.   So we have download the dxtoolkit2-v2.4.24-redhat8-installer.tar.gz but we still have this issue when issue any delphix command.  nothing return.

    For example:

    cat /etc/os-release
    NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux"
    VERSION="8.9 (Ootpa)"
    ID="rhel"
    VERSION_ID="8.9"

    [dxtoolkit2]$ ./dx_get_snapshots -help
    [dxtoolkit2]$

    In our redhat7 server will return information.

    Please help us find the root cause.

    Thanks,

    kihong

    Hi Kihong-

    I've tried to reproduce this issue in my own Environment, but I don't see an immediate behavioral issue with the dxToolkit and OS versions.

    [root@myhost dxtoolkit2]# cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux"
VERSION="8.9 (Ootpa)"
ID="rhel"
ID_LIKE="fedora"
VERSION_ID="8.9"
PLATFORM_ID="platform:el8"
PRETTY_NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.9 (Ootpa)"

[root@myhost dxtoolkit2]# dx_get_appliance -d deobj

[root@myhost dxtoolkit2]# dx_get_snapshots -help
SYNOPSIS

                         [ -notime ]
                         [ -help|? ] [ -debug ]

     dx_get_snapshots    [ -engine|d <delphix identifier> | -all ] [ -configfile file ]
                         -size [ asc | desc ]
                         [ -group group_name | -name db_name | -host host_name | -type dsource|vdb | -dsource name ]
                         [ -format csv|json ]
                         [ -help|? ] [ -debug ]

    You may need to share additional debug information to get further feedback. Can you try executing one of the problem commands with -debug appended (there are multiple debug levels, so you can also consider higher levels such as -debug 4), as this may provide better detail on the functional problem.

    You may also consider using strace to look at the execution; this may expose a permission or other issue in the installation or environment... for example, in some instances we've seen permission issues in /tmp where dxToolkit creates temporary objects.

    This is typically due to the new ACL access in /tmp that is enabled by default in RHEL 8.

    Create a new temporary folder and define your TMP environment variable to point there like so:
    mkdir ~/tmp

    export TMP=~/tmp

    Then try your dxtoolkit commands as usual and let us know the outcome.

    Yes, it is the issue with /tmp.    Our Unix team is asking if dxtoolkit use other location instead of /tmp?

    Please advise.

    Hi Kihong-

    Jose provided a workaround above that you can use for dxToolkit operation, was that not successful in your own testing?

    @Kihong - just to clarify, I think idea here is to define a different TMP environment variable so it's not defaulting to /tmp. The sugesstion is to create a folder in your home directory (the '~' part in front of /tmp) and then assign the TMP variable to '~/tmp'.

    So I think the answer to your question is yes, a separate location defined by your team if that makes sense.  I'm far from a technical expert - just wanted to throw that out there in case there was confusion.

    it worked for me

    now the question is how to get the hostname for the delphix engine as it is an ec2 instance I was using the canonical name
