An attempt to apply a VNX system code upgrade via Unisphere Service Manager (USM) results in a Pre-upgrade Health Check (PUHC) wizard failure and an error is reported with the following message. Error message: Insufficient permission to run CLI command
Global user (sysadmin) is mapped to a user on the Control Station with a different name, usually sysadmin# (ex. sysadmin1, sysadmin2, etc..) This is common whenever a Unisphere domain re-join occurs The CS user home directory is not present Example: # ls -la /var/tmp/ | grep -i cut drwxrwxrwx 5 sysadmin3 nasadmin 4096 Jan 20 16:45 .CUT <<< CS user via which the upgrade through USM is to be applied # cat /etc/passwd | grep -i sysadmin sysadmin:x:500:201::/home/sysadmin:/sbin/nologin sysadmin1:x:501:201::/home/sysadmin1:/sbin/nologin sysadmin2:x:502:201::/home/sysadmin2:/sbin/nologin sysadmin3:x:503:201::/home/sysadmin3:/bin/bash <<<< user: sysadmin3 # ls -la /home/ | grep -i sysadmin drwx------ 2 574 nasadmin 4096 Dec 13 2013 sysadmin drwx------ 3 sysadmin1 nasadmin 4096 Dec 23 09:56 sysadmin1 drwxr-xr-x 2 sysadmin2 nasadmin 4096 Jan 20 09:22 sysadmin2 Notice that sysadmin3 does not have a /home directory
In order to address this issue, a sysadmin /home directory should be created manually and the appropriate files should be present within the directory Login to the Control Station via SSH as root Run the following commands, $ mkdir /home/sysadmin<Number> $ cp /home/sysadmin/.bash* /home/sysadmin# After the creation of the /home/sysadmin# directory and copying the .bash* files into it, re-log into USM and apply the upgrade procedure
