Hello,
Had an unusual problem the other night and was hoping that someone else
could explain what happened.
Implementing 4 V480's with 2 NIC's each into a an environment where they are
each connected to the same two switches (which are hard-configured to
100/full duplex). I have a startup script that runs at boot that send ndd
commands to turn off autonegotiate and turn off all settings but 100fdx to
/dev/ce. That seemed to work fine and ce1 was working perfectly. The
problem was ce0 on all four servers was not talking to anyone. As they were
all on the same subnet, talking to the same switch on the same VLAN, there
was no routing issues to contend with. After a while of not figuring
anything out, I re-ran the startup script on only one of the four servers.
At that point, they all started talking to each other. Any ideas why that
would happen?
Also, ran the 'netstat -k' command and was looking at the results for the
ce0 and ce1 portions and could not translate a few of the options (for
example link_duplex=2). Does anyone know of documentation on the ce
interface that explains all of the status codes? I have the 'Platform
Notes: Sun(tm) GigaSwift Ethernet Device Driver' pdf that has some info but
not all...
Thanks,
John
