Hi All,

I am using a SunFire V890 server running on solaris 8.0 with all latest patches.
I have configured IPMP active- standby configurations on it the

# ifconfig -a output is

lo0: flags=1000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 8232 index 1
       inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
ce0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
       inet 192.168.1.206 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
       groupname test2
ce0:1: flags=9040843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DEPRECATED,IPv4,NOFAILOVER>
mtu 1500 index 2
       inet 192.168.1.121 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
eri0: flags=69040843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DEPRECATED,IPv4,NOFAILOVER,STANDBY,INACTIVE>
mtu 1500 index 3
       inet 192.168.1.122 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
       groupname test2
ipdptp0: flags=100a8d1<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,NOARP,MULTICAST,UNNUMBERED,PRIVATE,IPv4>
mtu 8232 index 4
       inet 192.168.1.206 --> 137.237.15.104 netmask ffffff00

the /etc/hostname.ce0 is
192.168.1.206 netmask + broadcast + group test2 up
addif 192.168.1.121 deprecated -failover netmask + broadcast + up

/etc/hostname.eri0

192.168.1.121 netmask + broadcast + deprecated group test -failover standby up

Am I doing something wrong here in matter of syntax???.....kindly advice....

This server has a mate server with same configurations and both are
connected to a CISCO switch.

when there is a databse sync up goin on both servers all the
interfaces in the group fails. and there is data loss . Then is fails
back on one interface ...however there is data loss.

Kindly suggest....and advice...

Thanks and Regards,
Deba
