Hey everyone,
after updating the Software to version 24.8.22 I noticed that my pioreactors do not show up as online or reachable anymore in the inventory or at the assigned pioreactors.
If I start stirring for example on one of the assigned pios (shown as “Waiting for information”) I never get feedback in the UI that the stirring actually started and in consequence no option to stop it. But the worker starts stirring.
Datapoints are also plotted for OD for example, so it does not seem to be a connection issue (Although only after a manual page reload).
Rebooting leader and workers and removing and re-adding the workers to the cluster again did not help.
Hey @CamDavidsonPilon
You were right, originally I had the leader hostname followed by .local under broker_address. I switched it over to the leader IP Address and now it is working again.
The network is hosted by the leader as a local access point. When I try to resolve the hostname via nslookup directed at the leader I get a “Query refused” response, same when I try to do the reverse and resolve the IP Address.
Looks like the hostname resolution does not work anymore. Any Idea where I could a look on that?
I can’t recall anything in our most recent update that would change the mdns resolution (which maps .local → ips). I think it’s unusual that it stopped though, and something we will look into.
Note: some quick googling suggests that nslookup won’t work for mdns, only dns. But ping will use mdns.
Anyways, using 10.42.0.1 in your config.ini is fine, since that will be a static ip.
