You will need to fix the underlying network problem before you can run hte node.

Hi!
Check and correct IP-addresses in your cluster-config file and network environment/especially your heartbeat lan/.
Then do :
#cmapplyconf ...
And try again.
Regards.

Couple of things you should start with:

Check the physical card itself if it is showing the link LED.

Check your network card status and its IP. YOu may have typo (error) in your netconf file.
Though speed mismatcg (half/full duplex) should not result in not being able to ping but check that as well.

Also, check your host file.

Check your lookup policy by nxlookup and see they are okay.

you can not proceed further unless you can ping each server independently and network is up.

hope this helps.

Login to the server and see it that Lan card is UP and IP address is assigned to the lan card by lanscan and netstat -in.
If they are not then assign the IP and bring up the card.
Try the linklook command to see the physical connectivity of the NIC card(to see if the card is defective or there is problem with the cable from switch to the Heartbeat network card or swap the post on the switch to see if the post on switch is defective)
