When you ReIP the VM using runbook configuration and it fails to execute, we will get an Email alert indicating that the runbook execution failed during a failover/failback

Cause:

This may occur when VMware tools are not installed in a guest virtual machine (VM), causing the Runbook execution to fail.

If the Runbook fails to execute, we can always investigate the MSA jss-task.log to determine the reason behind it.

\uD83C\uDF31 Solution

...

.

Alarm

This alarm is triggered when Re-IP fails to properly execute for a VM failover/failback runbook configuration.

...

Possible Cause

This condition typically occurs when VMware Tools are not installed on the guest virtual machine causing the runbook execution to fail.

Resolution

  1. Ensure VMware Tools are running on the Guest OS.

  2. For Windows VM check the VMware tools from the control panel

  3. For Linux VMs Run the command to check the VMware tool version (
    • Windows VMs: Check VMware Tools from the Control Panel.

    • Linux VMs: Run the command vmware-toolbox-cmd -v

    )
    • to check the VMware Tools version.

    • To install the VMware

    tools
    • Tools on a Cent OS system, use the command

    (
    • sudo yum install open-vm-tools

    )
    • .

Note

If the runbook still fails to execute properly, review jss-task.log from the MSA to determine the cause.
