/usr/sbin/cmviewconf contents in IPv6 environment

[Srujan]

Hi,
I am newbie to HP cluster.
I came to know that HP cluster supports IPv6(except heartbeat), the conf file located in "/usr/sbin/cmviewconf" contains "ip address" and "subnet mask", now my doubt is if the cluster is in IPv6 environment then do these strings remain the same or may change for eg "ipv6 address" and "ipv6 subnet mask" something like that.

Thanks in advance

Hello,

They are still valid. From a typical config:

# For example, if this package uses two IPv6
# addresses 2001::1/64 and 2001::2/64,
# the address prefix identifies the subnet
# as 2001::/64, which is an available
# subnet.
# Enter:
# ip_subnet 2001::/64
# # (netmask=ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::)
# ip_address 2001::1
# ip_address 2001::2
#
# Alternatively the IPv6 IP/Subnet pair can
# be specified without the prefix
# for the IPv6 subnet.
# Enter:
# ip_subnet 2001::
# # (netmask=ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::)
# ip_address 2001::1
# ip_address 2001::2

Cheers,

Hi,
Thanks for your reply,
I still have doubt, the config file you have provided had "ip_address" "ip_subnet" where as there is no underscore in my config file. Is there any change for this version?.
Basically I am interested in two strings "ip address:" and "package subnet:". Is that '_' gets added for IPv6 version?

Thanks in advance

cmviewconf will report both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses listed in the cluster binary file.
Example:

IPv4 Information:
subnet: 16.113.0.0
subnet mask: 255.255.192.0
ip address: 16.113.1.218

IPv6 Information:

(No IPv6 addresses were applied to this particular binary or NICs)
