Setonix Login nodes experiencing Slingshot issues

Major Incident

Resolved

There appears to be an issue will the Slingshot interfaces in the login nodes in Setonix. We appear to be down to 1 login node in the normal pool of login nodes.

We have had a case open with HPE for weeks, but they appear to be no closer to providing any kind of solution.

Please, please, please, please don't run any computational intensive operations on the login nodes. We have lovely compute nodes for that.

Please be aware that you can log into setonix-workflow.pawsey.org.au and get access to additional "workflow" nodes.

Resolved: HPE believe the issue has been resolved and has closed the support case.

They believe the issue was: "Global Flow Control was disabled on the E1000's. Once enabled performance was regained. ClusterStor team working on a fix (CSPROD-18819) to make Global Flow Control enabled all the time moving forward."

27 Jan 2026 02:06:55 (19 hours ago)

Monitoring: HPE made change to the Global Flow Control on scratch and software during January's maintenance, as well as a modification to the configuration of the LAG ports in the Slingshot fabric.

We haven't seen any C_EC_CRIT errors on the login nodes since maintenance, and are continuing to monitor them like hawks.

19 Jan 2026 00:21:34 (9 days ago)

Monitoring: setonix-04 reported a C_EC_CRIT error yesterday. It is not in the login pool, but HPE are stumped at why this is happening.

7 Nov 2025 05:40:41 (3 months ago)

Monitoring: HPE rebooted a number of Slingshot switches during maintenance.

We haven't observed any Slingshot errors on the login, data mover or visualisation nodes for 48 hours.

We will continue to monitor.

setonix-08 has slingshot issues. Pawsey is rebooting it.

Investigating: setonix-02 and setonix-03 have been added back to the RR DNS.
