problem with standby lan

[Inesa Clinko]

I have a problem with configuration of standby lan1 on my cluster. After doing cmcheckconf I receive such error:

"Warning: Network interface lan1 on node boro couldn't talk to itself.
Error: lan1 on node boro cannot be configured in the cluster
because it does not have an IP address, and it is not a standby lan for any other lan.
Failed to evaluate network ..."

This lan1 is not described in /etc/rc.cofig.d/netconf

This lan1 is unplumbed:
#netstat -in
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll
lan2 1500 192.168.195.0 192.168.195.26 993352 0 516559 0 0
lo0 4136 127.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 78705 0 78705 0 0

And the rows in cluster conf file is:
NODE_NAME boro
NETWORK_INTERFACE lan2
HEARTBEAT_IP 192.168.195.26
NETWORK_INTERFACE lan1
# List of serial device file names
# For example:
# SERIAL_DEVICE_FILE /dev/tty0p0

# Warning: There are no standby network interfaces for lan1.
# Warning: There are no standby network interfaces for lan2.

So why lan1 cannot be configured as standby?

Shalom,

Perhaps lan1 does not have link. Try the linkloop command to check this.

Perhaps there is configuration for the lan card in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf

Please review and possibly modify.

Hi:

I had the same problem, went to where the machine is, and saw that the was no wire attached !!

Just and idea

There is also a responce on my lan1 for linkloop:

#linkloop -i 1 0x001321EA582D
Link connectivity to LAN station: 0x001321EA582D
error: expected primitive 0x30, got DL_ERROR_ACK
dl_error_primitive = 0x2d
dl_errno = 0x04
dl_unix_errno = 57
error - did not receive data part of message

What this mean?

[Ignacio Javier]

The card I have not wired, shows the same result as yours:

ink connectivity to LAN station: 0x0011855F1D49
error: expected primitive 0x30, got DL_ERROR_ACK
dl_error_primitive = 0x2d
dl_errno = 0x04
dl_unix_errno = 57
error - did not receive data part of message


Are you able to go to the machine and take a look ?

[Inesa Clinko]

No, it is on remote site for regret, but
this card is connected to switch, because
yesterday it was configured with IP address of the same VLAN and worked properly as
standalone lan. The problem arise when
I remove this address and trying to reconfigure this lan as standby.
Any ideas?

Can u pls post the o/p of this

1)netstat -ni
2)lanscan
3)cat /etc/rc.config.d/netconf

i would review first, if the card is still working. I mean if it is correctly installed.
You could use ioscan, lanscan, linkloop to determine that.

If it is correctly installed i would check if it is conected. If you can not go where the machine is, someone should.

Finally is everything is fine, check the
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf file.
The lan that is going to work as standby should no be defined in that file.
Check the correct SG cluster and package configuration.
