Summary

An error can be seen when adding multiple seeds using the Network Node Manager i-series (NNMi) Graphical User Interface (GUI). This document shows what the error is, the cause and how it can be fixed.

Error

Greater than one seed can be added by using the GUI, and accessing Configuration -- Discovery -- Seeds, and then click on Actions, Add Multiple Seeds.  A new window appears called "Add Multiple Seeds". Upon adding an ip-address and clicking submit can result in the following error:

Can't locate OVNNMvars.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /opt/OV/nonOV/perl/a/lib/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /opt/OV/nonOV/perl/a/lib/5.8.8 /opt/OV/nonOV/perl/a/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /opt/OV/nonOV/perl/a/lib/site_perl/5.8.8 /opt/OV/nonOV/perl/a/lib/site_perl .) at /opt/OV/bin/nnmloadseeds.ovpl line 9.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /opt/OV/bin/nnmloadseeds.ovpl line 9.

Cause

The cause is a permissions problem with the file directory:

/opt/OV/nonOV/perl/a/lib/site_perl/5.8.8

Fix

To fix the problem, change directory to:

/opt/OV/nonOV/perl/a/lib/site_perl/

and ensure that the permissions are 555 or dr-xr-xr-x, as seen here:

dr-xr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Feb 10 10:40 5.8.8
