Can you post output of:
Code:
prtdiag -v; echo $?

This might be due to a non global zone configured with an exclusive IP stack.

Strange!!

The "ge" driver seems to be on the system because it's listed in path_to_inst

Does the file /etc/hostname.ge0 exist? If not, create it with the required hostname in it. Also check that hostname appears in /etc/hosts with its required ip address.

Reboot the system including the -r (reconfigure) switch

Code:
 
boot -r

Does the boot sequence still report "cannot plumb ge0"?

Add "-v" also to get a verbose boot.

Once the system is up, what does the output of modinfo look like? Is the ge module loaded?

If I try reboot -r it says:
Code:
# reboot -r
reboot: illegal option -- r
usage: reboot [ -dlnq ] [ boot args ]

Or Boot
Code:
# boot -rv
boot: not found

What should I try ?!

There is a hostname.ge0 and also there is a hostname.eri0 and a /etc/nodename and the ip - hostname in the /etc/hosts.

Is it a problem? I have the same hostname (not the same IP, the eri0 is configured to DHCP) for both interfaces. I can remove the hostname.eri0 and also remove the entry in /etc/hosts to eri0 and remove the nodename, but will it help or the interface should be working beside this?

Hi pbx368,

You could try the following;

Code:
root-> touch /reconfigure
root-> reboot

Regards

Dave
