Title
preflight reports Unable to ping port 88 using TCP. Ensure it is not firewalled and that the host is reachable on a joined system. -
Description
In situations where preflight is being used prior to upgrades it is reporting that it is unable to ping port 88 using TCP. Ensure it is not firewalled and that the host is reachable on a joined system.
-
Cause
The issue is that when running it without credentials to auth, preflight says the ports aren’t reachable, since it couldn’t try an auth. -
Resolution
On joined systems use -u host/ , for example:
/opt/quest/bin/preflight -u host/ <domain>
