APA on diffrent type of lan cards
We have purchased license for APA software with number recently from HP. We are planning to install and configure the APA this weekend. I am looking for a help to know whether my different kind of LAN cards will support APA. I have two types of LAN cards in my server on which we are going to implement APA. I would like to know whether APA will have any issue or difficulty in configuring APA between these lan cards. We are installing APA between LAN1 and LAN0 in which LAN1 is iether and other one is igelan.
I am unable to find any answer in APA Admin document about this. The doc only says devices whould have same operational characteristics.
Can any one please help me on this ?

Re: APA on diffrent type of lan cards
What you can't have is a 100mb card with a gigabyte card

Re: APA on diffrent type of lan cards
Most Important thing while going for APA config
both lan cards must have same speed or should be identical,
Please refer below procedure to configuration
decide which two lan interface you want to put in apa
both interface should be in same vlan.
verify link between to interface using command
# linkloop -i PrimaryPPANumber StationAddrOfSecondary
# vi /etc/rc.config.d/hp_apaportconf
HP_APAPORT_INTERFACE_NAME[0]=lan0
HP_APAPORT_CONFIG_MODE[0]=LAN_MONITOR
HP_APAPORT_INTERFACE_NAME[1]=lan1
HP_APAPORT_CONFIG_MODE[1]=LAN_MONITOR
vi /etc/rc.config.d/hp_apaconf
HP_APA_DEFAULT_PORT_MODE=LAN_MONITOR
# /sbin/init.d/hplm stop
# /sbin/init.d/hpapa stop
# /sbin/init.d/hpapa start
#lanqueryconf -s
more /etc/lanmon/lanconfig.ascii
verify lan interface entry is proper here
sbin/init.d/hplm start
lanscan -q
it shoudl show like
2
3
900 0 1
For verification you can also do using lanadmin command
lanadmin -r 0
then lanscan -q should show like
900 1
after few seconds it should come back as
900 1 0
Hope this solves ur query,
Don't forget to assign points.

Re: APA on diffrent type of lan cards
If both interface speed is same then you can do APA.
Its not mandatory to have idenntical lan card.
