Why won the user interface connect to a machine?
This is usually because the machine address cannot be resolved or because the diagmond daemon is not running on the machine that is being connected to. • Use /etc/ping to verify that the host address can be resolved. • If ping works, check to see if diagmond is running on the host machine ( ps -ef | grep diagmond ). • If diagmond is not running on the host machine, log into the host machine, run STM on it, and use the File–>Administration–>Local UUT Logs command to view the log files on the host machine and determine what the problem is. It is also possible that the networking is not configured correctly. In this case, there will have probably been a long delay before the “Waiting to obtain host information…” dialog is displayed. To test the network configuration: • Use ‘hostname’ to determine your system’s host name. • Use ‘nslookup `hostname`’ to determine your system’s IP address. • Use ‘lanscan’ to view the LANs on your system. Verify that the hardware state of at least one LAN
