[zones-discuss] physical= not obeyed when ip-type=shared and physical dev part of IPMP group in global zone

2008-05-20 Thread Lewis Thompson
Hi, I have a customer who has a basic IPMP config in his global zone: vnet0 & vnet1 [currently vnet0 has the 'floating' IP] In addition he has a zone with ip-type=shared where physical=vnet1 When the zone boots the zone interface gets created on vnet0 instead of vnet1 I have verified this b

This appears to be the affect of selecting an interface that is a member of an ipmp group in the global zone. It is documented here: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2450/z.admin.task-60?l=ko&a=view&q=multipathing The behavior you are seeing is not specifically documented, but it seems reaso

In the global zone, do you have two ip addresses (one on vnet0, one on vnet1) or is vnet1 configured as standby? Steve L. On Wed, May 21, 2008 at 09:12:35AM +0100, Lewis Thompson wrote: > On Tue, 2008-05-20 at 13:56 -0700, Steve Lawrence wrote: > > It is documented here: > > > > http://docs.sun.

Seems like a feature. vnet1 is in standby, so the active link in the ipmp group (vnet0) is used for the zones. Is the desire to have both interfaces used by zones for additional bandwidth? Do the zones need ipmp as well, or is it ok if a link failure takes out some of the zones? I'm guessing z
