how to combine nics for DM Multipath
I don't undestand how to combine 4 nics in order to use DM Multipath. Do I have to install each nic with its IP address? If yes, do I need a group IP address? This concept is not clear for me.
The connection beetwen the server (DELL Poweredge T710) and the SAN through iscsi works well, I used multipath but only one nic is configured with its IP address. But the server has 4 nics and I would combine them with multipath!
the devices are:
SAN DELL equallogic (3 nics)
DELL Poweredge T710 (4 nics)
2 switch 5424

Hi, is there a way in Solaris 8 to determine how many total NIC's say a Sun Sparc box has installed - plumbed or unplumbed - and find out its capable network speeds and MAC address?
I know ifconfig -a but that only shows the plumbed and used interfaces.
thx

I'm looking for a way in RHL 5.1 to use two NICs on one host with two physical IP addresses and map them under one virtual IP address, i.e. NIC 1 10.10.10.1 NIC2 10.10.10.2 VIP 192.168.10.1
Basically I want either one of the NICs to ARP for the VIP. No load balancing required just HA. (2 Replies)
