From time to time, a Machines environment, hostname, or other factors may cause the Sledgehammer (also called Discovery) BootEnv to fail to boot or start Workflow successfully. In these cases, you will need to log in to the Machines console, and debug the problem.

Solution

If the sledgehammer discovery image should fail to launch Runner jobs successfully, or other issues arise with the start up sequences, you can debug start up via the systemd logging. Log in to the console of the Machine in question (or if SSH is running and you have access-keys setup, you can SSH in), and run the following command to output logging:

journalctl -u sledgehammer
