I'm not sure why TCPMAINT is unable to issue the command "IFCONFIG GBE200 UP -Mdiskpw wtcpmain".
TCPMAINT is in the list of users allowed to issue commands (OBEY). I've verified that the interface is down, so now I'm trying to bring it back up. Can anyone help?

Ask yourself and your colleagues "what changed?" 2. Look at the TCPIP console and see if you have any errors. 3. Issue "ifconfig -a" and see if everything you expect to be UP is up. 4. QUERY VSWITCH to see if they are in the state you expect. 5. At some point in the past you drew a picture of the network into which you placed VM TCP/IP. Confirm with your network architects that the picture is still correct (subnet masks & routers).
