HP networking teaming

[hema_5]

I am trying to make networking teaming on my HP server DL380. I have two internet connection wih differnt gateways and different subnet. I need to connect to the internet with both connection to have load balaning and fault tolrance. when I am trying to make network team I have error message. I attached it. anyway I press OK and contnuie the steps after it I have third connection. but I can't connect to the internet or my network resources. I want to know what is the steps to have the network team?

Hi,

You choose a wrong from.
DL380 doesn't run HPUX.

Please choose a forum with your os

Shalom,

This is OS dependent.

Its called bonding on Linux and is built into RH ES 4.

All you do is configure /etc/modprobe.conf

alias bond0 bonding
alias eth0 bcm5700
alias eth1 bcm5700
options bond0 miimon=100 mode=active-backup

create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0

-----
DEVICE=bond0
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=101.163.13.127
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Bonding
BOOTPROTO=none
USERCTL=no

change ifcfg-eth0 and eth1 to look like this:

DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
USERCTL=no

service network restart

Have console access, a single typo can leave you with no networking.
