3510 network interfaces and # of direct attached hosts

Hi,
I have 3510 array with Dual FC controllers and each controller has a network interface. I am trying to congiure both NICs with separate IPs but I only see one interface through console. How to set the 2nd interface up?
And there are 8 FC host ports but I only see 4 , I need to attach 6 to 8 hosts directly to the array and not able to see 8 channels. Need help to see all 8 channels and to maps Logical drives to all 8.
Thanks
ssgn

The array is configured to use the controllers for failover.

Setting network interface and ttl for MulticastSocket

Hello
I've tried to set the network interface and the TTL for a MulticastSocket, but it has no effect. For testing I set the TTL to '4' and the network interface to 'lo' (localhost), but everybody in the local area network get my message with TTL=1...
I use Fedora Core 5 (Linux), with no settings in the iptables.
Here is the code I used:
private String networkInterface="lo";
private String address="239.192.0.5";
private int port=54321;
private int mcastTtl=4;
public void send(){
InputStream input=getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("something.xml");
byte[] buffer = new byte[1480];
int length = input.read(buffer,0, 1480);
inetAddress = InetAddress.getByName(address);
nInterface=NetworkInterface.getByName(networkInterface);
MulticastSocket socket = new MulticastSocket(port);
socket.joinGroup(inetAddress);
DatagramPacket packet = new DatagramPacket(buffer, length,
inetAddress, port);
socket.setTimeToLive(mcastTtl);
socket.setNetworkInterface(nInterface);
socket.send(packet);
socket.leaveGroup(inetAddress);
For simplicity I took the Error handling off here, but certainly I have it in my code. No errors, no problems, everybody get the correct message... But not with the settings I made.
Any tips?
Thanks:
Bence

I'm seeing the exact same thing. It's as if setNetworkInterface() doesn't actually do anything at all.
java version "1.5.0_09"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_09-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.5.0_09-b03, mixed mode)
OS: Linux kernel 2.6.14.3, CentOS 4.2
Code example (parts removed for clarity) follows. This code works perfectly when I allow it to attach to the default (eth0) interface. When I try to change the interface it binds to, all packets are still multicast to eth0 ONLY! I see nothing on lo or eth1.
Properties props = System.getDefaultProperties();
props.setProperty("java.net.preferIPv4Stack","true");
MulticastSocket mcs = new MulticastSocket(localPort);
mcs.setNetworkInterface(NetworkInterface.getByName("eth1"));
InetAddress group = InetAddress.getByName("230.1.1.1");
String payload = "This is my payload";
DatagramPacket dgram = new DatagramPacket(payload.getBytes(),
payload.length(),
group, groupPort);
mcs.send(dgram);

BadRequest: Virtual machines with secondary network interfaces and virtual machines with no secondary network

I'm trying to create an "ExtraLarge" VM with multiple NICs. The New-AzureVM returns the following error:
BadRequest: Virtual machines with secondary network interfaces and virtual machines with no secondary network
interfaces are not supported in the same deployment, also a virtual machine having no secondary network interfaces
cannot be updated to have secondary network interfaces and vice-versa.
But I have no other VMs. Or at least I did and then deleted them and all their disks. The service has no deployments (either staging or production).
Why is New-AzureVM complaining about a mismatch of VMs with and without secondary network interfaces when no other VMs exist?
I have tried many things to fix this, including the deletion of ALL of my resources. I have deleted and created the service many times, both with an affinity group and without. I have a screen print of the -debug output if your interested.
Thanks for the outstanding help.

FAS3220 and FAS2240 direct attach on fabric interconnect 6296UP

Hello everybody
I have the following architecture
1 Cisco Catalyst 6509-E
1 Cisco Catalyst 3560-x
2 Fabric Interconnect 6296UP
1 FAS 3220 (principal storage)
1 FAS2240 (vault backup)
1 chasis cisco UCS 5108
5 blade servers Cisco UCS B200M3
Firmware version: 2.2(3c)
Fabric Interconnect are direct attach on fabric interconnect 6296up and the ports are configurated as FC storage ports
My question is the following:
Can I zoning fabric interconnect with FAS3220 and FAS2240?
Can I present LUNS of FAS2240 and FAS3220 at the same time on the same boot policy, same san boot policy, and the same organization?
Thanks for your help

Well, even if that was possible. You're accounting for a critical failure - i.e. a failure of two redundant devices (both 3220s, which I would have assume would be running in a cluster ... or 7mode).
While just upstream you have a single cat 6500 - which would be a single point of failure.
Logic would dictate to account for a single device failure all across the path before looking into multi-device failure.

Network interface and usb device not working.

hi everyone,
I just installed Solaris 10 3/05 S10_74L2a x86
on my home pc.
My motherboard comes with an in-built ethernet port for networking.
But after installing the OS, I can't access to the Internet (I logged in as root).
Then I do an ifconfig -a command, I see only the loop interface, my ethernet port interface connected to my modem is missing.
I also try to plug in a USB flash drive into my USB port but I cannot see what is inside my USB flash drive.
I have done a devfsadm -v command for that added USB flash drive.
anyone knows what go wrong?
any help given will be greatly appreciated.
thank you.
good day :)

But after installing the OS, I can't access to the
Internet (I logged in as root).
Then I do an ifconfig -a command, I see only the loop
interface, my ethernet port interface connected to my
modem is missing.Maybe your ethernet driver is loaded but not attached.
Check device name with prtconf and see if your device
is in /etc/drivers_aliases or not.
I also try to plug in a USB flash drive into my USB
port but I cannot see what is inside my USB flash
drive.I had the similar problem before. First, check USB
ports are "alive" (see ehci, uhci, ohci are correctly
loaded and attached). If it's ok, insert you USB flash
drive and restart vold with "pkill -HUP vold".

Two Network Interfaces and DNS

Hi -
Sorry for asking what sounds like a simple question. I'm running 10.6.2 on and early 2009 Xserve.
I have two interfaces. One that I'm using for web traffic and the other for a SIP PBX that's running on the Xserve. I know how to point the the inbound traffic to the correct interface (web vs. SIP) through WAN to LAN rules (I have a separate pubic IP for each service), but how do tell a particular service to use that interface for outbound traffic?
Is this done by creating a machine name locally for that interface? When I do that, I notice that in server admin, that DNS name is linked to that IP. I have outbound rules that tie that LAN IP to external IP, but I just want to make sure the Xserve is sending out traffic on the correct interface.
Thanks!

Static routes likely won't help here - they're based on the destination IP address and you're not likely to know that for all possible incoming connections. In addition, it's entirely possible that the same client IP establishes a web and a SIP connection so now you're hosed - you're only going to use one destination-based route for that client address.
My first suggestion would be to simplify your network and run on a single public interface. What's your thinking behind using two interfaces here? Unless you have > 1gbps WAN link you're not going to saturate the link. Even if you do you could bond the two interfaces together to get a 2gbps link to your switch/router.
Then you use your firewall to manage the address translation based on port (port 80 -> WAN IP 1, 5060 -> WAN IP 2).
That said, Snow Leopard appears to support source-based routing where the default route is based on the source (i.e. server-side) IP address. This could solve your issue, but I can't confirm this since my network is architected to not use source-based routing so I haven't needed to look at that option.

How to detect ipaddresses of other systems in a given network Interface ??

Guys ... I know only the Network Interface and I want to know the IPAddresses that have been assigned to the other systems on that Network Interface .. I m making an application on packet sniffing..
I want to show the list of hosts on a given Network Interface or device when a User selects one..
but I just can't seem to find a method ...
I know this is kinda easy .. but plz help me out..
eg:- The User selects Nvidia Ethernet device...
then i want to display all the computers that are connected to the Nvidia Ethernet device ..

And plz .. its pretty clear what i want to do .. just help me out instead of finding mistakes in terms ....Help...
Unless you are the owner of that network then I suggest that you get permission in writing (pen and ink rather than email) before doing whatever it is that you want (unless you use the windows API).
People have been fired, expelled and had civil/criminal legal proceedings against them for network scanning even when they thought they had permission.

How to choose the good Network Interface on a server ?

Hi all,
On server you have generally more than one ip address so ...How to choose the good Network Interface on a server for the NoSQL Node ?
Thank you for all
C.Pruvost.

Hi Charles I only consider storage nodes and their replicated nodes.
Actually I show an error in the logs saying that one of my storage node use a loopback address. On my laptop I have a network interface and a loopback address (disabled)...when starting sn1 I show that the port 5000 is only linked to the ip address 0.0.0.0 so it is not the good ip address..although i use for configuring :
java -jar ..\lib\kvstore-2.0.23.jar makebootconfig -root root1 -port 5000 -admin 5001 -host ipaddress_of_my_laptop -harange 5010,5020
and after
java -jar ..\lib\kvstore-2.0.23.jar start -root root1
If you have a sample tutorial that explains how simulate on the same laptop an Oracle NoSQL architecture running on 3 disctinct servers please give us this information.
Thank you for all.

Why wont my windows recognize my network interface?

When running windows 7 using bootcamp windows wont recognize my network interface and i dont seem to be able to find any drivers for it online.
Ive updated bootcamp to 3.2 and still nothing, also my magic mouse stopped working in windows after updating to bootcamp 3.0

Have you updated the Apple software on the Windows side?
If you inserted the MacOS installer disk after you initially installed Windows for the Apple drivers then you might try inserting the MacOS installer disk again while booted into Windows and navigate to "repair drivers" and then update them again when done.

Deep problem with starting SOA suite when network interface is up......

Hi
thank you for reading my post
I have finally installed SOA suite in Advanced mode.
When i install the SOA suite my network interface was down and now that the network inteface is up the SOA suite does not starts.
even if i disable the network interface and start the soa suite, i can not use it when i am connected to the network (My network IP is static).
for example when i am connected to network EM does not opens and gives the folowing error :

By accessing. I mean accessing them through thier network ip address through ssh or an xterm or any other network service the zone is running.
say I have all 3 zone running each in a xterm.
I click on zone 1 or global zone and both this 2 xterm windown respond and I can run commands.
If I swich to the zone 2 zterm, zone 1 and global zone freeze, and zone 2 takes 30 sec - 1 min to start responding.
If I am in a ssh session instead of a xterm the ssh session will stop responding and session will get disconnected.

Install solaris via jumpstart with 2 network interfaces

Hi guys,
I'm trying to deploy Solaris 10 on a LDOM , using Jumpstart server. The LDOM must have 2 network interfaces and 2 default routes. Here's the relevant part of sysidcfg file:

Edited by: kido on Dec 29, 2010 6:10 PM

Hello again,
First of all, if I delete the second default route from sysidcfg, the installation performs uninterrupted, but vnet1 is not brought up after reboot. I get a message like: vnet1 is not a valid interface name...or something similar...
Regarding multiple default routes now... As long as "man defaultrouter" and "man sysidcfg" state that multiple routes are supported, I would expect this to work...or at least I need a way of installing 2 NICs without human intervention...
I will try to use some post install script instead ( will create /etc/hostname.vnet1 and add second route to /etc/defaultrouter) and will let you know the results.

Fw 4.1.112.33292 Network Interface

I just installed firmware update 4.1.112.33292 on ix2-dl-10. My system status shows a yellow caution alert that says "The network interface is unavailable". I can access the configuration UI through the network interface and also the shares on the device. i.e. it seems to be working fine other than it thinks it has a problem. I use a static IP and have had the same configuration since I installed the ix2-dl-10 a couple years ago. I have not changed any networking hardware since Christmas. I'm not 100% sure which FW I was on previously - I may have skipped the 33149 release. I tried searching the forums and KB but the search didn't seem to do anything. I would like to get rid of the error status if possible. Please advise. Thanks,-Marty

Thanks, Gus. In the process of submitting the question, the system turned me on to an article that answered the question:https://lenovo-na-en.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/31596 A reboot fixed the problem. I hadn't done a reboot because I figured it had just booted up after the firmware install, so it would be a waste of time. Shows what I know. -Marty

Unable to receive multicast on a multi network interface host

Can anyone please help?
I am not able to receive multicast on a multi network interface host.
This is the code:
public class LegacyMulticast {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
InetSocketAddress group = new InetSocketAddress("224.10.20.30", 12345);
NetworkInterface iface = NetworkInterface.getByName("eth3");
MulticastSocket socket = new MulticastSocket();
socket.setSoTimeout(5000);
socket.joinGroup(group , iface);
byte[] b = new byte[4096];
DatagramPacket datagram = new DatagramPacket(b, b.length);
try {
socket.receive(datagram);
System.out.println("Success");
catch (SocketTimeoutException ste) {
System.out.println("Failure");
socket.leaveGroup(group, iface);
The funny thing is that when I start this code, Wireshark detects IGMP join on the correct network interface caused by joinGroup call, followed by constant UDP traffic on correct port which I aim to receive and finally I see correct IGMP leave caused by leaveGroup call and the UDP traffic stops.
I just don't receive anything on socket.receive call.
I am trying to figure this one out for days now. Pls help someone :)
P.S. I suspected security, but System.getSecurityManager() call returns null.
P.P.S. I also tried implementing this with NIO, but with same result.

public class LegacyMulticast {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
InetSocketAddress group = new InetSocketAddress("224.10.20.30", 12345);
NetworkInterface iface = NetworkInterface.getByName("eth3");
MulticastSocket socket = new MulticastSocket(12345);
socket.setSoTimeout(5000);
socket.joinGroup(group , iface);
byte[] b = new byte[4096];
DatagramPacket datagram = new DatagramPacket(b, b.length);
try {
socket.receive(datagram);
System.out.println("Success");
catch (SocketTimeoutException ste) {
System.out.println("Failure");
socket.leaveGroup(group, iface);
This is still not working.
The multicast is coming from the network (not localhost), OS is Windows 7.
When I start a multicast stream localy via VLC application on this same group and port, I receive the traffic in this Java application OK.
Once again, Wireshark detects IGMP join and leave and multicast traffic flow on eth3 network interface initiated by the Java application, but it just doesn't see the UDP datagrams.

Fake Network Interface - What Is It, and How Do I Get It?

I'm in the process of setting up Linux-VServer, which supports OS level virtualization. It's like running a VM, only instead of using an abstraction layer to create fake hardware and host another OS, the kernel just runs multiple userspaces and makes sure they don't touch anything they're not supposed to.
Anyway, like many VM solutions, networking is a bit funky. They create fake interfaces that seem to exist only in the kernel, then use iptables to mask them with NAT so it still works on a network. The trick is that I'm not sure how they're creating fake interfaces, so I don't know how to replicate it on Arch. Here's a page describing the process: http://linux-vserver.org/Networking_vserver_guests
On Debian, they add this to /etc/network/interfaces:
auto dummy0
iface dummy0 inet static
address 192.168.1.250
netmask 255.255.255.0
What are they using to make this work? Is there a good way to replicate it under Arch?
Last edited by arew264 (2009-03-26 03:18:19)

I ran `ip addr add 192.168.1.4/24 dev eth0 label eth0:1`, which adds an IP address to eth0.
This works better than the solution the vserver wiki recommends because I can give the guest a public IP address.
Is there a way to do this in /etc/rc.conf or the network daemon?
