Operating Systems AIX How to check the ethernet status for vlan and lhea adapter in client servers? Post 302907411 by kah00na on Friday 27th of June 2014 03:38:43 PM

I have 2 VIO servers and a network connection to each of them in an etherchannel so running entstat against the individually adapters doesn't work.
Code:
host:/:$ lsdev | grep ^ent
ent0         Available       Virtual I/O Ethernet Adapter (l-lan)
ent1         Available       Virtual I/O Ethernet Adapter (l-lan)
ent2         Available       EtherChannel / IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation
host:/:$ entstat -d ent0

entstat: 0909-003 Unable to connect to device ent0, errno = 19
host:/:$

I do see this info in the entstat output for the etherchannel. Since virtual adapters don't really have "links", I think the comparative is "LAN State":
Code:
host:/:# entstat -d ent2
Number of adapters: 2
Active channel: primary channel
Operating mode: Network interface backup mode
...
ETHERNET STATISTICS (ent0) :
Device Type: Virtual I/O Ethernet Adapter (l-lan)
...
LAN State: Operational
...
ETHERNET STATISTICS (ent1) :
Device Type: Virtual I/O Ethernet Adapter (l-lan)
...
LAN State: Operational

NAME
lanscan - display LAN device configuration and status SYNOPSIS
Remarks The and commands are deprecated. See for more information. DESCRIPTION
displays the following information about each LAN device that has software support on the system: o Hardware Path. o Active Station Address (also known as Physical Address). o Card Instance Number o Hardware State. o Network Interface "NamePPA". The Network Interface "Name" and the "PPA" (Physical Point of Attachment) number are concatenated together. A single hardware device may have multiple "NamePPA" identifiers, which indicates multiple encapsulation methods may be supported on the device. For Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 links, the "Name" is used to designate Ethernet encapsulation, and for IEEE 802.3 encapsulation. For other links (FDDI, Token Ring), only the encapsulation designation is used. o Network Management ID. o MAC Type. o HP DLPI Supported. Indicates whether or not the lan device driver will work with HP's Common Data Link Provider Interface. o DLPI Major Number. o Extended Station Address for those interfaces which require more than 48 bits. This is displayed only when the option is selected. o Encapsulation Methods that the Network Interface supports. This is displayed only when the option is selected. Options recognizes the following command-line options: Display station addresses only. No headings. Display interface names only. No headings. Display information about PPAs that are acquired by APA. No headings. Display MAC types only. No headings. Display Network Managements IDs only. No headings. Display PPA numbers only. No headings. Same as except link aggregate PPA's will be followed by a list of LAN interface PPA's that are configured in the corresponding link aggregate. No headings. Verbose output. Two lines per interface. Includes displaying of extended station address and supported encapsulation methods. WARNINGS
does not display information about LAN devices that do not have software support such as LAN interface cards that fail to bind properly at boot-up time. Obsolescence The and commands are deprecated. These commands will be removed in a future HP-UX release. HP recommends the use of replacement command nwmgr(1M) to perform all network interface-related tasks. AUTHOR
