Hi, NCC is reporting that I’m missing the cpupower command. Seems strange. I’m using a i7-2600k processor in each node. Should I install the package using yum repositories?  Where does it run, host or CVM?

 

Detailed information for host_cpu_frequency_check: Node 192.168.0.127: ERR : Error while getting host CPU frequency range. bash: cpupower: command not found   Node 192.168.0.121: ERR : Error while getting host CPU frequency range. bash: cpupower: command not found   Node 192.168.0.125: ERR : Error while getting host CPU frequency range. bash: cpupower: command not found   Node 192.168.0.123: ERR : Error while getting host CPU frequency range. bash: cpupower: command not found

Hello, 

Are you running a Dell R640 node? 

This is expected behavior on these nodes when running NCC 3.5.x due to a driver limitation preventing the 'cpupower' data from being collected by NCC.

If that’s the case then you can upgrade NCC or disable this specific check: 

  • Go to Prism
  • Health tab
  • Search for Host CPU Frequency Check
  • Go to the check and Select Turn Check Off

You can check out KB-5542 for more information about this check on all hardware.
