Issue/Introduction

In our SOI system no Connector details are shown in the UI anymore (see screenshots)

 


The following KBs did not help:

SOI Dashboard doesn't show Connector details

Can't see connector details on the Administration tab

Customer answered:


- The SOI systems can reach each other via DNS (tested with ping and nslookup) using short hostname or FQDN, also vice versa (from IP to FQDN).
- The name resolution is done at correct prodcution ip address (no problem with multiple NIC)

Environment

Release : 4.2

Component : Service Operations Insight (SOI) Manager

Cause

Firewall blocking communcation

Resolution

A blcoked port  (61616 tcp) at SOI server can cause this issue.

Allow the traffic via the firewall for access via UI server.

After opening of local firewall at SOI server the connector parameters will display.
