Lan1 failed

Gops_1 — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 13:47:39 GMT

Hi I am having Oracle running on a HP UX SG cluster. I am facing a problem with my Secondary server. I am seeing lan 1 is failed recently. When I saw the ethernet physically there wasn't any light glowing. when i do a lanscan i can see that lan1 shows up. But presently lan2 has taken that IP and running fine. Let me know what kind of troubleshooting i have to do so that i can confirm that the problem is with my lan card.

Points

Thanks

Please check if there are any network or LAN cable issue via

# netfmt -f /var/adm/nettl.LOG000

I am getting the same o/p. I can see the nettl.LOG000 in /var/adm directory. Still give this error.

Hi,

You could check the following

# ls -l /var/adm/net*

There will be files like nettl.LOG000, nettl.LOG001

These files are not veiwable.
You could view in a formatted way via

# netfmt -f /var/adm/

Or use lanadmin, perform a reset on the card. Then try to do a linkloop from lan2 to lan1 (since they can take over from eachother, they should be on the same vlan).

Lanscan can give you the MAC address and PPA number, needed for respectivily the linkloop and landadmin commands.

This time i got the o/p. It is giving o/p of 2004. I will check with lanadmin command. Now it is running properly in lan1.

Thanks
