Description | This article describes the issue where the OCI SDN connector goes down on the FortiGate. |
Scope | FortiGate. |
Solution |
In the following image, the OCI SDN Connector shows as down:
Run the following commands: diagnose debug disable diagnose debug reset diagnose debug application ocid -1 diagnose debug en
Try to re-establish the SDN connection by disable/enable the SDN connection and that should give the debug output.
After sometime disable the debug:
diagnose debug disable
The following is debug output. The following error may be received: ocid getting instance metadata st diskte
To resolve it, first check reachability:
execute ping 169.254.169.254
It should be reachable via the management interface.
get router info routing-table details 169.254.169.254
The routing must be via port1(Management Interface of the OCI).
If routing is via public interface, configure a static route for 169.254.169.254 via port1, which should be the Management Interface of the OCI.
To display diagnostic commands with:
diagnose test application ocid -1 1. show HA stats 2. SDN api test 3. HA api test 4. filter list test 99. restart
If needed, restart ocid daemon by running the following command:
diagnose test application ocid 99
