Solution Type Technical Instruction Sure Solution 1019501.1 : How to verify the network configuration for the Shelf Management Module (ShMM) on the Sun[TM] Netra CT900
PreviouslyPublishedAs 240146 Description Resolving problems connecting to the Shelf Manager through the Network Purpose and Scope This document will take you through the steps to verify that the network configuration of the Shelf Manager Module (ShMM) of the Sun[TM] Netra CT900 is set up correctly to allow full network accessibility for management of the shelf. Symptoms
Steps to Follow These are the steps to follow to verify correct ShMM network configuration
Refer to < Document: 1019404.1 > if problems are encountered making the serial connection.
Issues the clia shmstatus command. If the command returns a status of "Backup", either connect to the serial port for the other ShMM or issue the clia switchover command. Example: # clia shmstatus Pigeon Point Shelf
Manager Command Line Interpreter # clia switchover Pigeon Point Shelf
Manager Command Line Interpreter # clia shmstatus Pigeon Point Shelf
Manager Command Line Interpreter #
The network parameters can be setup in one of 3 different ways.
Details of all three methods
are given in the Netra CT 900 Server Administration and Reference
Manual
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E19217-01/index.html Similarly there is more than one way to obtain the currently running network configuration on the ShMM.
Example 1: # ifconfig -a cgtp0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00 cgtp1
Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00 eth0
Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:C2:3F:D1:34 eth1
Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:C2:3F:D1:35 lo
Link encap:Local Loopback usb0
Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 56:6B:D2:C2:0C:1F usb1
Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 8A:D2:DE:32:D4:04 vlan55
Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:C2:3F:D1:34 # Example 2: # clia getlanconfig 1 Pigeon
Point Shelf Manager Command Line Interpreter
Compare the eth0 settings for IP address "inet addr", Broadcast address "Bcast", Subnet Mask "Mask" and Default Gateway with the expected or defined values. Please note: In the example given above the network does not use a standard class C network. If the addresses need to be corrected, the simplest way is to use the clia setlanconfig command to modify the relevant parameters. Example: # clia setlanconfig 1 ip 129.156.205.4 Pigeon
Point Shelf Manager Command Line Interpreter #
Use ssh or telnet to the ShMM IP address and verify that a login prompt if available. If
there is no response refer to <Document: 1019500.1> How
to verify the internal network on a Sun Netra CT900 and <Document: 1019514.1> How to verify the network connections required for shelf administration of the Sun Netra CT900
VLAN 55 is required when using the Netconsole feature to establish a console terminal session to a Node board from the ShMM. Check the parameters as
viewed by ifconfig -a If using firmware below R3U1 be aware of CR 6616996 which causes an incorrect Broadcast Address to to generated for VLAN 55.
eth1 is the second
ethernet port on the ShMM which is available to be used for ShMM
crossconnect. This allows access through the second switch to give a
redundant connection between the ShMM and the Base Network. It
requires Jumper E1 on the Netra CP3140 to be shorted between pins
1-2. usb0 is used by the
Active ShMM for communication to the Backup ShMM cgtp0 and cgtp1 were introduced for use by the Netra High Availability Suite software in firmware R2.1. However they are not required and will go away at a future release of firmware.
