Operating Systems AIX VSwitch not showing up on VIO Server Post 302940722 by juredd1 on Wednesday 8th of April 2015 01:15:11 PM

VSwitch not showing up on VIO Server

Want to run this by you all before opening a PMR with IBM Support.

It's been a few weeks since I have done this so I can't be 100% sure of how I think it worked in the previous version.

We upgraded our HMC's yesterday to 7.7.9 SP2 in hopes of fixing some issues we were having. Today I needed to add a couple virtual network adapters. I first added to the profile and I am unable to select the VSwitch other than Ethernet0 (default) and I am unable to add VLAN's after selecting IEEE tab. If I select the IEEE tab and select OK and then go back to edit that new adapter I can then add the VLAN's I need on that adapter. However I am not able to still select the VSwitch that I am needing to use.

I also tried to do this via DLPAR but I am unable to select anything but the ETHERNET0 VSwitch which does not exist as we replaced it with our own name so the DLPAR function fails.

Ideas appreciated.

Thanks,
Justin

NAME
scconf_transp_adap_ce - configure the ce Sun Ethernet 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 ce adapters as cluster transport adapters. These adapters can be used with transport types dlpi. The ce adapter is VLAN capable. A ce adapter connects to a transport switch or to another ce adapter on a different node. In either case, the connection is made through a transport cable. When a transport switch is used and the endpoints of the transport cable are configured by using scconf, scinstall, or other tools, you are asked to specify a port name on the transport switch. You can provide any port name, or accept the default, as long as the name is unique for the switch. The default is to set the port name to the node ID hosting the adapter at the other end of the cable. There are no user configurable properties for cluster transport adapters of this type. SEE ALSO
