D.6.1 Example of configuration to ensure reliable networks in Oracle VM environment (Solaris 10)

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: DOMAIN-A]

1) Setting up the system

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

192.168.70.1    domaina  # HOST-A Virtual IP of DOMAIN-A
192.168.70.2    domainb  # HOST-A Virtual IP of DOMAIN-B
192.168.70.3    hostb    # Virtual IP of HOST-B 
192.168.70.100  swhub1   # primary HUB IP
192.168.70.101  swhub2   # secondary HUB IP

1-2) Write the hostnames defined above in theh /etc/hostname."interface-name" files.

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 vsw0 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 e -i 192.168.70.1 -t vsw0,vsw1

Note

Ensure that the physical IP address that is specified to the option '-i' must be the same IP address that is set in /etc/hostname.vsw0.

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

5) Setting up the Standby patrol monitoring function

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha1 -m p -t sha0

Information

When multiplexing the virtual devices (vsw and vnet) in the Oracle VM environment, specify 0:0:0:0:0:0 to the MAC address of the standby patrol. Therefore, the virtual MAC address assigned to the virtual devices by the standby patrol will be used.

6) Change the method of deactivating the standby interface

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetparam -d plumb

7) Activation of virtual interface

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/strhanet

8) Starting the HUB monitoring function

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetpoll on

[HOST-A DOMAIN-B]

1) Setting up the system

1-1) Define IP addresses and hostnames in the /etc/inet/hosts file. Defined information is the same as for HOST-A.

1-2) Write the hostnames defined above in the /etc/hostname.vnet0 file.

1-3) Define the subnet mask in /etc/inet/netmasks file. Defined content is same as HOST-A.

2) Reboot

Run the following command to reboot the system. Make sure vnet0 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 e -i 192.168.70.2 -t vnet0,vnet1

Note

Ensure that the physical IP address that is specified to the option '-i' must be the same IP address that is set in /etc/hostname.vnet0.

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

5) Setting up the Standby patrol monitoring function

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha1 -m p -t sha0 

Information

When multiplexing the virtualdevices (vsw and vnet) in the Oracle VM environment, specify 0:0:0:0:0:0 to the MAC address of the standby patrol. Therefore, the virtual MAC address assigned to the virtual devices by the standby patrol will be used.

6) Activation of virtual interface

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/strhanet

7) Starting the HUB monitoring function

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetpoll on

[HOST-B]

1) Setting up the system

1-1) Define IP addresses and hostnames in the /etc/inet/hosts file. Defined information is the same as for HOST-A DOMAIN-A.

1-2) Write the hostnames defined above in the /etc/hostname.fjgi0 file.

1-3) Define the subnet mask in the /etc/inet/netmasks file. Defined content is same as HOST-A.

2) Reboot

Run the following command to reboot the system. Make sure fjgi0 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 e -i 192.168.70.3 -t fjgi0,fjgi1

Note

Ensure that the physical IP address that is specified to the option '-e' must be the same IP address that is set in /etc/hostname.fjgi0.

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

5) Setting up the Standby patrol monitoring function

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha1 -m p -t sha0

6) Activation of virtual interface

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/strhanet

7) Starting the HUB monitoring function

# /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetpoll on
