PRIMECLUSTER Global Link Services Configuration and Administration Guide: Redundant Line Control Function 4.1 (for Solaris(TM) Operating System)

4.2.1 Activating virtual interfaces

If the configuration has been completed, virtual interfaces are automatically activated at system start. To activate virtual interfaces without a system restart after installing Redundant Line Control function, setting configuration information, and specifying an operation mode, use the strhanet command.

For details about this command, see Section "7.2 strhanet Command".

• Be sure to use a strhanet command to activate a virtual interface. Do not use an ifconfig command to do the operation.
• Do not operate physical interfaces that a virtual interface bundles with an ifconfig command while activating a virtual interface.
• A virtual interface for the Solaris container must be activated priori to zone startup. Normally, the virtual interface is activated during system startup. When the virtual interface is added during system startup, however, it is necessary to activate the virtual interface manually before starting the zone.
