lanscan

[sheevm]

I just added token ring card to one of my Lcalss server. I installed the driver and configured. But when I do lanscan I do not see that card I only see my ethernet cards. I can do ifconfig with that lancard it displays the information. It is working fine.

Anyone has any idea?

Thanks

Hi Raji,

Check the network patches installed on your system. PHNE_24413 may help you.

Hi Raji,

Is the card configured properly ? lanscan does not display information about LAN devices that do not have software support such as LAN interface cards that fail to bind properly at boot-up time.

I would suggest you to check the card status from SAM, check the /etc/rc.log file for any errors during boot time.

I am trying to install the PHNE_24413 patch as per your suggestion.

I downloaded it and did sh on the patch

When I run swinstall it give s the following error message

"You do not have required permission to perform
this SD operation" check permission using swacl"

I am running this as root.

What does this mean?

Restart swagentd and try again ..

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
# /sbin/init.d/swagentd start

Hi Raji,

You may have to restart the swagentd daemon:

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd stop

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd start

Hi Raji,

There are two things you need to check.

1. Make sure your hostname is properly setup and you are able to ping to it.

2. Run swacl -l root. If you get an error, then you need to fix your security directory under /var/adm/sw.

#swagentd -k
#mv /var/adm/sw/security /var/adm/sw/security.old
#cp -Rp /usr/newconfig/var/adm/sw/security /var/adm/sw/security
#swagentd -r

run swacl -l root again. You shouldn't get errors this time. Then you can use swinstall to proceed.

Hi Raji,

I think you are installing these patches from another machine on the network.

If you are doing so, please mount the remote machine file system to your server on which you want to install the patch. Then use swinstall to install the patch.

Otherwise try to download the patch using binary download option.

Thanks to all of you.


After copying the security file and starting and stopping swagentd it worked fine. And also lanscan is fine.
