Troubleshooting Steps ======================= If you are facing any error while enabling CDP Backup from Myaccount Portal or If your CDP backup got failed for some reason, Please refer below guide for some of the Common Troubleshooting steps and Try enabling the backup again. Step 1: Make sure CDP-agent service is running ```````````````````````````````````````````````````` CDP-agent by default is installed on all your nodes and the agent will be up and running while you launch a server. You need to make sure it's running all the time so that data is being Backed up continuously without any issue. You can check the status of CDP-agent and Verify it by running below command :: service cdp-agent status For some reasons if the service has been stopped, You can start the CDP-agent with below command :: service cdp-agent start Step 2: Restarting CDP-agent once ````````````````````````````````` Some common errors of CDP-agent can be rectified easily by just restarting the agent once. You can try restarting the cdp-agent on your server once and try enabling the backup of your server To restart a CDP-agent, Please use below command :: service cdp-agent restart   You can check the status of CDP-agent and Verify it by running below command :: service cdp-agent status Step 3: CDP-agent port should be opened on your server ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Once you have verified that CDP-agent is running fine, You need to make sure CDP-agent Port **1167** is opened on Your server. E2E Cloud Backup server should be able to connect to your server to back up the data and if the port 1167 is closed it will not be able to authenticate and connect to it. If you are using Linux Server,You can refer this article to `Open port on Iptables `_ If you are using Windows Server,Please refer this article `Open port on Windows Firewall `_ .. tip:: Once you have opened up the port,Kindly verify it whether you are able to connect to the CDP-agent of your server using telnet command. Replace your server IP in below command and check :: telnet xx.xx.xx.xx 1167 Trying xx.xx.xx.xx... Connected to xx.xx.xx.xx Escape character is '^]'. If you are still facing any issue, please raise a ticket to our support team on cloud-platform@e2enetworks.com who will help you resolve the issues. One of the other common reasons we might get an issue is with CDP Backup is when the agent could not find a suitable hcpdriver module for your system. You must install this manually to overcome the issue. Installing hcp driver Module Manually ```````````````````````````````````````` Step 1: Check the kernel release info ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Check the kernel release info of your server with below command :: uname -r Example output :: #root@e2e-60-229:~# uname -r #4.15.0-58-generic   Step 2: Download respective hcpdriver module ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Download respective hcpdriver module from below path :: http://beta.r1soft.com/modules/ http://r1soft.mirror.iweb.ca/repo.r1soft.com/modules/ You can download the respective module using the link with below command :: wget http://beta.r1soft.com/modules/hcpdriver-cki-x.xx.x-xx-generic.ko .. Note:: Please make sure to replace the correct kernel release info in the above url Step 3: Copying hcpdriver module in the r1soft directory. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Once Download is completed, Copy the module to r1soft Directory :: cp hcpdriver-cki-x.xx.xx-xx-generic.ko /lib/modules/r1soft/ Step 4: Make a symlink for Module ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Go to **/lib/modules/r1soft/** directory and make a symlink for the file hcpdriver-cki-x.xx.x-xx-generic.ko > cd /lib/modules/r1soft/ using below steps * Remove existing symlink by running below command :: rm -rf hcpdriver.o * Command to create a new symlink :: ln -s /lib/modules/r1soft/hcpdriver-cki-4.15.0-58-generic.ko hcpdriver.o Step 5: Restart CDP-agent to make the changes reflected :: service cdp-agent restart.
