Operating Systems AIX Problem with Etherchannel Post 302253362 by acascianelli on Friday 31st of October 2008 11:38:09 AM

I found the problem...

I was configuring the controllers to act as a load balancing etherchannel controller. This normally would not be a problem, but I had each NIC connected to a different switch.

I removed the Etherchannel adapter and recreated a new one with a primary/backup failover configuration and it is working fine now.

NAME
scconf_transp_adap_sci - configure the sci cluster transport adapter DESCRIPTION
Note - Beginning with the Sun Cluster 3.2 release, Sun Cluster software includes an object-oriented command set. Although Sun Cluster software still supports the original command set, Sun Cluster procedural documentation uses only the object-oriented command set. For more infor- mation about the object-oriented command set, see the Intro(1CL) man page. You can configure sci SCI-PCI adapters as cluster transport adapters. These adapters can be used with the dlpi transport type. The adapter name is sciN, for example, sci0. Do not use scidN as the adapter name. An sci adapter can only be connected to another sci adapter or to an SCI switch. When an sci adapter is connected to an SCI switch, it is important that you specify the correct port name when referring to a port on the switch as an endpoint argument to the scconf or scinstall utility. The port name must match the port number on the SCI switch (the number that is printed on the switch itself). Failure to give the correct port name could result in the operation failing. The result of providing an incorrect port name will be the same as you would see if the cable between the adapter and the switch were removed. There are no user-configurable properties for cluster transport adapters of this type. SEE ALSO
