Troubleshooting

 

Error code 13011
 
         The specified main mode authentication list was not found.
 
The fPolicy Server connects to the NetApp device but fails on registration with error above. The NetApp ONTAP console shows an error message similar to the following:
         
         User DOMAIN\COMPUTER$ denied access - missing required capability: ‘(Not in a local group.)’
 

Reason

Agent running under local system account.

Solution

Change the Agent service account to a domain user account.

 

Error code 14001
 
         Error registering fpserver.dll  Side-by-Side error
 
The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more details.
 
If two instances of fpservice.dll are loaded on same machine then only one dll can register successfully. However it will not receive any events.
 
If the issue occurs on a 2008 server, it is possible that the system does not have the correct C++ runtime libraries which are noted in the Windows Event Viewer. The solution is to install the following Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 runtime library (must be 32 bit):

Note: PeerLink is a 32 bit application and will require the 32 bit Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 runtime library.

 

Error code 13003
 
         Error 13003 creating FPolicy POLICYNAME : User DOMAIN\USER does not have capability to invoke API fpolicy-create-policy. (13003)

 

Reason

Unable to register and create a policy due to insufficient privileges.

Solution

The PeerLink Agent service account must be a Domain User with Domain Backup Operator privileges and must either be a Domain Administrator or be a member of the Local Admin Group on the Filer.  You can add a domain user to the Local Admin Group of the Filer with the following ONTAP command (where domainUserName represents the name of the user account):

 

useradmin domainuser add domainUserName -g administrators
