fw_ipaddr_both: Unable to resolve ipaddr for myhost
Failed to establish session with AMON server at 127.0.0.1:18192
Why does it occur? I still have not found out a root cause.
The entry for myhost is missing in the file /etc/hosts. If you edit the file you will lose your changes with a reboot.
So I have found a workaround to fix it and get services running
You first check that the initial database does not have what you are looking for:
Expert # dbget hosts:v4:myhost:address
Then you run these commands to write directly into the database:
Expert # dbset hosts:v4:myhost t
final touch . Save your fix and recreate the /etc/hosts file.
Expert # dbset :save
Expert # /bin/hosts_xlate hosts /etc/hosts < /config/active
Expert # /bin/hosts_xlate hosts /etc/hosts < /config/active
You are all set. the entry is permanent in file /etc/hosts
