Hello,
I've successfully activated link aggregation on NCP3.1 and SE with my HP ProCurve 1810G switch but I fail to do so on oi151a and do not understand why.
I did the following:
# svcadm disable network/physical:nwam
# dladm create-aggr -l e1000g0 -l e1000g1 aggr0
# ifconfig aggr0 plumb
# ifconfig aggr0 dhcp start
Doing
# ifconfig -a
informs me that aggr0 has a valid IP-address (I am not writing everything here because I only have access to the machine from this computer using VNC and therefore I cannot copy from the terminal). But name resolving doesn't work if I try to ping a domain like heise.de or anything on the web or intranet. I only can access it if I type in the IP address.
If I try to make the modification persistent with the following command:
# touch /etc/datengrab.aggr0 /etc/dhcp.aggr0
(the files I created do not contain anything - I hope this is ok) and if I subsequently do a reboot then no IP address is shown for aggr0 using ifconfig -a. I only can obtain an address doing manually again
# ifconfig aggr0 plumb
# ifconfig aggr0 dhcp start
But DNS resolving then still doesn't work and after this reboot also SSH, SMB and other services are down (that is why I currently access only via VNC). Doing
# svcs -xv
tells me that svc:/network/physical:default is in maintenance mode due to the following reason: Start method exited with $SMF_EXIT_ERR_CONFIG. and the following 12 dependent services are not running:
svc:/milestone/network:default
svc:/network/iscsi/initiator:default
svc:/network/smb/client:default
svc:/network/smb/server:default
svc:/network/shares/group:default
svc:/network/shares/group:smb
svc:/network/shares/group:zfs
svc:/system/fcoe_initiator:default
svc:/network/iptun:default
svc:/network/ssh:default
svc:/network/dns/multicast:default
svc:/system/avahi-bridge-dsd:default
If I look into the /var/svc/log/network-physical:default.log then it tells me that
[...]
[ Okt 25 20:32:29 timeout override by svc.startd. Using infinite timeout. ]
starting DHCP on primary interface aggr0
aggr0: interface does not exist or cannot be managed using DHCP
[ Okt 25 20:32:32 Method "start" exited with status 96. ]
Anyone has got an idea what I did wrong because I really do not have a single clue.
Kind regards, Oli
