Netrain won't work after upgrade

[Jason Denham]

Hi

I have upgraded from Tru64V5.0a to 5.1 and added patch kit 6. This system has netrain configured but when the system boots netrain will not configure the correct card. This is the error i get
/sbin/rc3.d/S00inet: ifconfig failed - ioctl (SIOCSMACSPEED): Function not implemented
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCPIFADDR): Function not implemented: ee0


Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi,

are you trying to set the speed or something else manually on one of the netrain member cards? This will result in that error.

Hi Micheal

The speeds are set at the console. It was all working fine prior to the upgrade.

Steps were as follows.

Firmware update to 6.4. All ok
Upgrade to V5.1. Problem starting the network then but i ran it from sysman and was ok.
Applied patch kit 6. Still the same error after.

Something in the netrain configuration has changed since the 5.0 to 5.1 upgrade.

Thanks

Hi,

can you post the definition of ee0 in /etc/rc.config and ifconfig -a?

it is a good starter to give us the content of rc.config and rc.config.common. If defined within /etc/inet.local please provide also this information.

sysman is not a very intelligent tool in case of setup, please always check the variables within /etc/rc.config* files after changing configuration!
