Dear sunmanagers,
the situation is the following: I read nearly every howto, blueprint and
thread in this mailinglist according to this theme. But :-((
I have two interface in my testmaschine (good old ultra-2) and both of
them are working fine as a hme0 and hme1.
I would like to configure them as activ/passiv. That means one should be
a standby interface. Loadbalancing is not required.
I did the following:
# ifconfig hme0 unplumb
# ifconfig hme1 unplumb
# ifconfig hme0 plumb
# ifconfig hme1 plumb
# ifconfig hme0 group cms
# ifconfig hme1 group cms
# ifconfig hme0 dummy1 netmask + broadcast + -failover deprecated up
# ifconfig hme1 dummy2 netmask + broadcast + -failover deprecated up
# ifconfig hme0 addif klessing netmask + broadcast + failover up
In my understanding the productiv address (in this case klessing) is the
one that is shifted between the two interfaces. The test adresses are
fix. Ok?
Have a look in my messages:
Sep 7 15:32:23 klessing in.mpathd[108]: [ID 255185 daemon.error]
Failures cannot be detected on hme1 as no IFF_NOFAILOVER address is
available
Sep 7 15:32:23 klessing in.mpathd[108]: [ID 255185 daemon.error]
Failures cannot be detected on hme0 as no IFF_NOFAILOVER address is
available
So far everything is ok. But:
Sep 7 15:34:03 klessing in.mpathd[108]: [ID 490503 daemon.error]
Failure detection restored on hme0 as an IFF_NOFAILOVER address is
available
Sep 7 15:34:15 klessing in.mpathd[108]: [ID 594170 daemon.error] NIC
failure detected on hme0 of group cms
Sep 7 15:34:40 klessing in.mpathd[108]: [ID 490503 daemon.error]
Failure detection restored on hme1 as an IFF_NOFAILOVER address is
available
Sep 7 15:35:02 klessing in.mpathd[108]: [ID 168056 daemon.error] All
Interfaces in group cms have failed
I didnt pull out any cables or so up to this moment. Just configuring
...
Is there anybody out there who can help? Many thanks in advance! I will
summerize!
