C.4.3.1 Check for consistency between Solaris container and network configuration

[Contents]

If the Solaris zone is already set on the system in fast switching or NIC switching mode, check consistency between the Solaris container and network configuration.

If one of the following warning messages is output during environment settings, it is necessary to check the network configuration in the Solaris container.

Messages:

hanet: 36301: warning: IP address is already defined in zones. zone=<zone_name>
hanet: 36401: warning: interface name is defined in zones. zone=<zone_name>
hanet: 36501: warning: secondaryIF is specified in zones. zone=<zone_name>

See

For corrective action against each message, see "A.1.2 Error output message (numbers 100 to 500))".

[Changes]

Before modification

The network configuration in the Solaris container is not recognized.

After modification

Consistency between the Solaris container and network configuration is checked.

C.4.3.2 Reserve takeover virtual interface for fast switching mode

[Contents]

If the virtual interface in fast switching is registered as a cluster takeover resource with the "hanethvrsc" command, it will use the logical ID No.65 or later like "shaX:65" and "shaX:66".

If the virtual interface in fast switching is specified for multiple zones, the logical ID will be the same as that for the takeover virtual interface. However, the logical virtual interfaces like "shaX:65" and "shaX:66" will be generated in advance when the Redundant Line Control function is started then the cluster takeover virtual interface will automatically be reserved. So, the same logical ID will not be used for multiple zones, and the cluster takeover virtual interface can be used.

[Changes]

Before modification

When the virtual interface and takeover IP are set with the "hanethvrsc" command, the takeover virtual interfaces like "shaX:65" and "shaX:66" will not be reserved.

See the following output example of the "ifconfig" command after the virtual interface and takeover IP settings.

# ifconfig -a

        inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0

Point

The "ifconfig" command outputs the takeover virtual interface (sha0:65). The environment settings and operation of a cluster system are the same as before.
