SUMMARY: Sun Cluster 3.1 1000Base-T (bge) Install

All...

Many thanks to Val Popa <val.popa@sun.com> for directing us to a core
cluster patch about which we were unaware.

Briefly, we installed 113713-11 (an updated pkgadd, etc.), then
installed 113801-06 (for Solaris 9) and rebooted. We again executed
scinstall and it correctly verified and configured our bge interfaces
for our cluster. We encountered (and ignored) some [seemingly] trivial
scinstall errors about unexpected package versions, and a few sccheck
errors about a non-existent /opt/SUNWexplo/bin/explorer utility, and
some missing XML documents.

Furthermore, I'd like to thank the following list members for their
"diligence" in keeping me apprised of their office absences:

Steve OBrien <OBrienS@accuread.com>
mattm@mail.citystamp.com
Klas.Erlandsson@vodafone.se
"Eriksson (London), Christer" <Christer.Eriksson@seb.co.uk>
Paul Clayton <paul.clayton@intec.co.za>
Murray Robert-rmurra01 <robertmurray@motorola.com>
rmendu@linkshare.com

AND FINALLY, here is the initial description of our problem:

> We're encountering problems installing Sun Cluster 3.1 onto a couple
> of our V240 servers. It appears that scinstall is unable to recognize
> the bge interfaces to complete the install. Is anyone aware of a
> problem with using the bge interface? A Google search revealed little
> and Sun's documentation only generically states it's supported (i.e.
> with 1000Base-T adapters). TIA
