Issue/Introduction

The ME4 storage arrays my indicate a hardware problem and logs will be needed.  They can be collected from either the Web UI or the command line, as root. The utility from the command line is pv_monitor.sh -S.  This will produce a 5MB (or less) store.zip file. The ME4 may require ciphers that are not configured for the sftp used in pv_monitor.sh. You can use the GUI or update the ssh_config file with the ciphers.

While generating the CSR on a sensor using pv_monitor.sh -S from the command line, there may be errors.
 
[root@sensor1 ~]# pv_monitor.sh -S

Environment

Release : 8.2.6-55530

Resolution

Add the ciphers to the MAC line in /etc/ssh/ssh_config.  You will need to add "[email protected],[email protected]" to the line beginning with the keyword MAC.

This

MACs hmac-sha1,hmac-sha2-256,hmac-sha2-512

Becomes

MACs hmac-sha1,hmac-sha2-256,hmac-sha2-512,[email protected],[email protected]

Then try the pv_monitor.sh -S and the logs will be collected.  Attach them to the support case with the shipping address and contact name and number.
