Error while doing restore_clone in IFS Apps10

Hi Surendrnatha,Is the clone-target server the same or different from the clone-source server? If IFS has never been installed on the new server this file will not exist. It should be created when restoring the clone, so there is no need to create the file.Often we see remnants of a previous environment still being defined in this file causing this error.Best regards -- Ben

Error while doing restore_clone in IFS Apps10

Hi Surendrnatha,Caused by: C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\ContentsXML\Inventory.xmlPlease open %ProgramFiles%\Oracle\Inventory\ContentsXML\inventory.xml in a text editor,and check whether the instance name already exists in the <HOME_LIST /> element.If it does, (1) back up the file, (2) remove the duplicate instance name, (3) and retry.Best regards -- Ben

About the global.scale parameter in ifscloud-values.yaml.

Hi Wakabayashi-san,The global.scale parameter affects Kubernetes deployments and containers. For deployments, it defines memory and cpu for resource requests and limits. Please see the Kubernetes documentation for further details.For target containers, it defines an environment variable ODP_JAVA_OPTS with a value of -XX:MaxRAMPercentage=<value>. Please see the JDK documentation for further details.You can view the definition in the Helm templates. It also shows up in the verbose installer logs. Essentially it multiples the predefined container memory and CPU values by global.scale. There is some additional scaling and rounding before being added to the minimum memory and CPU.Please check a target deployment for specific details. Specifically the resources.limits, resources.requests, and containers.env sections.kubectl get deployment/<name> -n <ifs namespace> -o yamlBest regards -- Ben

IFS .NET Print Agent Compatibility with Windows Server 2022

Hi William,The “Product Supported Platforms” document indicates:IFS Print AgentServer operating systems are defined in Windows Server section of "IFS Middleware Server".And the Middleware Server section indicates that Windows Server 2022 is supported from UPD22. However, I would recommend a more explicit confirmation to avoid any misunderstandings. Please open a support case and they will be able to confirm with the relevant R&D team. Also note that the above mentioned document is internal to IFS, though I think it can be shared with you via the support ticket.Best regards -- Ben

ifsapp-connect pod

Hi Kacper,> Why is it caused that those pods are still restarting?There are many reasons that a pod may restart, including an unhandled exception (=error), insufficient CPU or memory, or a failed health probe.> If POD has been restarted we should delete it and let it get up again?Most pods are managed by a deployment, which manages the pod lifetime and replicas. If a pod fails and the replica count is not met, the deployment will create a replacement pod. You can optionally cleanup after failed pods but it is not required. Typically you only remove pods to force a new one to be created.> How we can see what happening and what is the cause of restart on this certain pod?Please check the pod logs and node description.Node description:kubectl describe node <node name if there are multiple>Please pay particular attention to the CPU and memory/resources and events sections near the end.Pod logs:kubectl logs deployments/ifsapp-connect -n <ifs namespace>kubectl logs pod/&

IFS Framework and installation

Hi Prasanna,You will need to request the password from whomever provided it to you to continue.However, since it is self-signed, it may just be easier to create your own self-signed certificate. You can do that with keytool or (ideally) openssl.Best regards -- Ben

IFS Cloud Middle Tier Configuration - Remote Deployment

Since you are able to connect from localhost, it looks like the SSH server is up and listening on port 22. "Connection timed out" may be a firewall issue. Is there a firewall between IFS Remote and Windows Management?Just to check, from Windows Management does DNS gaunce.us.lmco.com resolve to the expected IP address? You can verify withnslookup gaunce.us.lmco.comAre you able to SSH to IFS Remote using the IP address?Best regards -- Ben

IFS Cloud Middle Tier Configuration - Remote Deployment

Hi Dan,Was the IFS remote (Ubuntu VM) host name changed prior to initiating an SSH connection from the Windows Management server or after? If a SSH connection was previously established between the two hosts a private key to the old host name may exist. Can you please share the exact error message?In the above scenario, you can clear the old private key with the following command:ssh-keygen -R <old dns for ifs-remote>. This should be done on the Windows Management server.If still having trouble, are you able to SSH to your IFS remote from any other PC? The command isssh ifs@<fqdn or ip address>Best regards -- Ben

"ImagePullBackOff" status of two pods in IFS Cloud 23.2.2

Hi PlaSandaM,The ImagePullBackOff status means that Kubernetes could not pull a container image. It will continue to try to pull the container image with an increasing back-off delay until resolved.The error "failed to copy: read tcp 10.0.0.149:37644->20.101.176.184:443: read: connection reset by peer" indicates that a connection from 10.0.0.149 (your IFS remote server) to 20.101.176.184 (=ifscloud.jfrog.io, where the container image exists) could not be made.This indicates a network issue. It could be for a number of reasons, including (though not limited to): a missing route, the port (443) is being blocked by a firewall, a proxy issue etc. You will need to check with the network administrator to understand why this is failing.Best regards -- Ben

The V2 endpoints are also usable. How do you plan to map Azure users to IFS Cloud? Azure email? Please take special notice in Azure that what looks like an email address is usually the UPN.

IFS cloud installation for 23R1 - ifs-ingress missing

Hi Mayura,A few things to check and try to determine where in the process it is failing:Please share the output from running .\main.ps1 -resource 'INGRESS'. Please check that the Username and Password entered are correct. Does the ifs-ingress namespace exist? → kubectl get namespaces Was ifs-ingress downloaded into ifsroot\infrastructure\ifs-ingress? (In Windows Management server.) Check that the ifs-ingress deployments were created. → kubectl get deployments -n ifs-ingressNot sure if it is relevant, but the DNS settings look odd to me.I would remove 8.8.8.8 and let your DNS servers at 10.1.2.4 10.1.2.5 resolve non-local DNS.It can be added as a forwarder to your DNS setup if necessary.Ensure that you can resolve external resources from both the Windows Management and ifs-remote servers.Best regards -- Ben

Authorization problem after upgrade vom Apps10 to Cloud

Hi Thomas,A common cause for this is that the IAM pod is not running or ready. Please check the status:kubectl get pods -n <your ifs namespace>It should show as 2/2 and Running. Also verify that the other pods are also up and running too.If not running you should check the pod description and logs:kubectl describe pod <pod name> -n <your ifs namespace>kubectl logs <pod name> -n <your ifs namespace>You may need to append a “-c <container name>” to the logs command as well to distinguish between each container. See the describe output to identify the container names. Best regards,Ben

What does ifscore.networkpolicy.enabled really do?

The easiest way to confirm a Helm setting is to verify the Helm chart definitions.From the Windows Management PC (the below assumes that the JFrog IFSCloud repository has already been added from a previous installation):mkdir tmpcd tmphelm repo listhelm repo updatehelm search repo ifshelm pull ifscloud/ifs-cloud --untarIn tmp\ifs-cloud\charts\ifscore\templates\network.yaml, there is a Helm if block for when "networkpolicy.enabled" is set.There are multiple Kubernetes NetworkPolicy resources, each applied to specific matching resources.They allow / disallow specific traffic: ingress, egress, ports, TCP/UDP, IP range etc.See Kubernetes documentation for NetworkPolicy for complete details:https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/network-policies/You can then list all of the NetworkPolicy resources in your cluster:kubectl get networkpolicy -AYou can select one of them to view the actual definition and confirm the details in the above NetworkPolicy documentation.kubectl get n

System Exception Error

Hi Shibu,Not specific to IFS, this is a common GUI rendering error.(It is most commonly seen in WPF applications, but not limited to it.)Usually this is caused by old or unstable graphic drivers.That is why it does not reproduce on other PCs.There is not much that can realistically be done in the software to improve this.Rather, you should check your graphic drivers or reinstall Windows.Microsoft has more detailed information here:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/developer/dotnet/framework/general/wpf-render-thread-failuresBest regards,Ben
