Re: Zones, VLANs and 'aggr'egated interfaces...



Hi Peter,

I'm having the same problem. Also 08/07 (with some additional
recommended patches) and I'm trying the same (zone, vlan, aggregate).

The good news: I've managed to get this working on several servers
(V240) but for some reason I'm having trouble configuring this one.The
main difference is a different patch level when issueing uname -v.
When I tried this at first in februari, I needed a custom patch from
Sun to get this working, because there was a bug in solaris.

Did you applied this also?

Did you got it solved?

regards,

Henk

System: Solaris 10 Update 5/08 on a Thumper

I wanted to set up a number of zones on that machine, each to have
their own dedicated (set ip-type=exclusive) VLAN interface to separate
networks. For added fun (and performance) I wanted to aggregate the
four 1Gbps interfaces so all zones could share that performance, while
still having their own VLAN interface.

I can't seem to get the zone to accept the "aggr3328001" VLAN interface,
but a physical VLAN tagged one works fine, as does a non-VLAN aggregated
interface. This is a bit frustrating...

Ie, zonecfg (fragment):

set ip-type=exclusive
net:
        address not specified
        physical: aggr3328001
net:
        address not specified
        physical: e1000g3328003
net:
        address not specified
        physical: aggr2

aggr config ( dladm show-aggr ):

key: 1 (0x0001) policy: L4      address: 0:14:4f:a7:7:c0 (auto)
           device       address                 speed           duplex  link    state
           e1000g0      0:14:4f:a7:7:c0   1000  Mbps    full    up      attached
           e1000g1      0:14:4f:a7:7:c1   0     Mbps    half    down    standby

key: 2 (0x0002) policy: L4      address: 0:14:4f:a7:7:c2 (auto)
           device       address                 speed           duplex  link    state
           e1000g2      0:14:4f:a7:7:c2   0     Mbps    half    down    standby

Attempts to access the interface in the zone:

# ifconfig aggr2 plumb
# ifconfig e1000g3328003 plumb
# ifconfig aggr3328001 plumb
ifconfig: plumb: aggr3328001: No such file or directory
#

Any ideas? (It's the 'aggr332800' variant I wanted to use...)

- Peter
