Hi,
I have recently upgraded Diagnostic Agent in QAS with Microsoft failback cluster environment . After upgrade, I checked log files for SMD Agent and observed that it reads a false IP address with 169.254.*.* series. This issue seems to be related with APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing). The IP address 169.254.0.0 to 169.254.255.255 is APIPA range and is reserved for Microsoft. I searched on forum and got a note (1365796 – Local host name resolution fails in Windows failover cluster) relevant to this issue and applied it on host server. After applying the note, I restarted DAA, but still problem is the same. In host server, the command of ping -4 <localhostname> gives the correct output of server IP.
Could anyone tell me why is it happening? Or is there something more to be concentrated to solve this issue?
I have opened OSS message and communicating with SAP since last one week. Quick reply will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Ganesan
