Categories of appliance sick events by error message prefix

There are 6 categories for appliance sick events which can be distinguished by the error message prefix.

Audit Log is sick : <reason>

There is an error in the underlying audit log database. The reason will provide more details about the exact issue. Typically this is due to loss of consensus as a result of network connectivity. This may be the result of temporary network conditions and, if so, it will resolve automatically after a few minutes. If not, check network connectivity between Safeguard nodes. After ruling out network connectivity, generate a support bundle and contact Support. Do not reboot the appliance until consulting with Support. In some cases, rebooting the appliance can make the condition worse.

Access Request Workflow is sick : <reason>

There is an error in the underlying password workflow database. The reason will provide more details about the exact issue. Typically this is due to loss of consensus as a result of network connectivity. This may be the result of temporary network conditions and, if so, it will resolve automatically after a few minutes. If not, check network connectivity between Safeguard nodes. After ruling out network connectivity, generate a support bundle and contact Support.

Policy Data is sick : <reason>

There is an error in the underlying policy database. The reason will provide more details about the exact issue. Typically this occurs when a replica has lost network connectivity to the primary. This may be the result of temporary network conditions and, if so, it will resolve automatically after a few minutes. If not, check network connectivity between Safeguard nodes. After ruling out network connectivity, generate a support bundle and contact Support.

Cluster Connectivity is sick : <reason>

There is an error in the VPN connection between Safeguard nodes. The reason will provide more details about the exact issue. This may be the result of temporary network conditions and, if so, it will resolve automatically after a few minutes. If not, check network connectivity between Safeguard nodes on the public IP address since the VPN is tunneled over the public IP. After ruling out network connectivity, generate a support bundle and contact Support.

Appliance Resource Usage is sick : <reason>

A Safeguard process or underlying database is exhibiting unexpectedly high OS resource usage (CPU, Memory, Disk). The reason will provide more details about the exact issue. Restarting the appliance may resolve this issue. If the problem persists or recurs frequently, generate a support bundle and contact Support.

Connectivity failures

The most common causes of failure in Safeguard for Privileged Passwords are either connectivity issues between the appliance and the managed system, or problems with service accounts.

Always verify network connectivity and asset power before troubleshooting.

The following topics explain some possible reasons that Check Password, Change Password, and Set Password may fail, and gives you some corrective steps you can take.

Change password or SSH key fails

A local account password or SSH key change can fail when you are using a Windows asset that is configured with a service account with Administrative privileges, other than the built-in Administrator.

NOTE: Before Safeguard for Privileged Passwords can change local account passwords on Windows systems, using a member of an administrators group other than built-in Administrator, you must change the local security policy to disable User Account Control (UAC) Admin Approval Mode (Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode) option.

To configure Windows assets to change account passwords

  1. Run secpol.msc from the Run dialog,

    -OR-

    From the Windows Start menu, open Local Security Policy.

  2. Navigate to Local Policies > Security Options.
  3. Disable the User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode option.
  4. Restart your computer.
