B.6.2 Example of the Single system with NIC sharing

This section describes an example configuration procedure of the network shown in the diagram below.

If the Standby patrol monitoring function is not used, omit 5) in the procedure for setting up on each host.

[HOST-A]

1) Setting up the system

1-1) Define IP addresses and hostnames in /etc/inet/hosts file.

192.168.70.1    hosta1  # HOST-A Virtual IP (1)
192.168.70.2    hosta2  # HOST-A Virtual IP (2)
192.168.70.3    host11  # HOST-A Physical IP
192.168.70.4    hostb1  # HOST-B Virtual IP (1)
192.168.70.5    hostb1  # HOST-B Virtual IP (2)
192.168.70.6    host21  # HOST-B Physical IP
192.168.70.100  swhub1  # Primary HUB IP
192.168.70.101  swhub2  # Secondary HUB IP

1-2) Write the hostnames defined above in /etc/hostname."interface-name" files. If a file does not exist, create a new file.

- Contents of /etc/hostname.hme0

host11

1-3) Define the subnet mask in /etc/inet/netmasks file.

192.168.70.0    255.255.255.0

2) Reboot

Run the following command to reboot the system. Make sure hme0 are enabled as IPv4 interfaces after rebooting the system.

/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i6 -g0

3) Creation of virtual interface

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha0 -m d -i 192.168.70.1 -e 192.168.70.3 -t hme0,hme1
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig copy -n sha0,sha1 -i 192.168.70.2

Ensure that the physical IP address specified using option '-e' is the same IP address configured in /etc/hostname.hme0.

4) Setting up the HUB monitoring function

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetpoll create -n sha0 -p 192.168.70.100,192.168.70.101 -b off
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetpoll copy -n sha0,sha1

5) Setting up the Standby patrol monitoring function

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha2 -m p -a 02:00:00:00:00:00 -t sha0

6) Activation of virtual interface

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/strhanet

7) Starting the HUB monitoring function

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetpoll on

[HOST-B]
