Hi,

I have vlan tagged channel bonded interfaces on xDR proxies.      Maybe it will 
help just to show you.
In my case VLAN number is 71 and the IP address used here is 162.101.1.129.   
You need to make up unique LLADDR's.   Generally i think it's start them with 
02:00:00 to indicate user made up (Alan can correct me there if I misremembered 
that :) 

rename off your vswitch configs so in case you need to get back its easy :)


xdr91:/etc/sysconfig/network # cat ifcfg-bond0
BOOTPROTO='static'
STARTMODE='onboot'
BONDING_MASTER='yes'
BONDING_MODULE_OPTS='mode=active-backup fail_over_mac=active miimon=100'
BONDING_SLAVE0='eth0'
BONDING_SLAVE1='eth1'


xdr91:/etc/sysconfig/network # cat ifcfg-vlan71
ETHERDEVICE='bond0'
IPADDR='162.101.1.129'
NETMASK='255.255.255.0'
NAME='VLAN access'
NETWORK='162.101.1.0'
BROADCAST='162.101.1.255'
STARTMODE='onboot'
VLAN='YES'


xdr91:/etc/sysconfig/network # cat ifcfg-eth0
BOOTPROTO='static'
IPADDR=''
BROADCAST=''
STARTMODE='auto'
LLADDR=''
NAME='OSA Express Network card (0.0.3000)'
ETHTOOL_OPTIONS=''
MTU=''
NETWORK=''
REMOTE_IPADDR=''
USERCONTROL='no'
SLAVE='yes'
LLADDR='02:00:00:00:91:EF'


xdr91:/etc/sysconfig/network # cat ifcfg-eth1
BOOTPROTO='static'
IPADDR=''
BROADCAST=''
STARTMODE='auto'
LLADDR=''
NAME='OSA Express Network card (0.0.4000)'
ETHTOOL_OPTIONS=''
MTU=''
NETWORK=''
REMOTE_IPADDR=''
USERCONTROL='no'
SLAVE='yes'
LLADDR='02:00:00:00:91:EE'

xdr91:/etc/sysconfig/network # cat routes
default 162.101.1.1 - -


The bonding and 8021q modules seem to have loaded themselves - I couldn’t find 
anything specific to them in /etc/modprobe.d

And Alan is correct about VLAN tagging in LINUX (much easier to configure 
VSWITCH's, eeeewww), not to mention trying to do it with bonding two dedicated 
OSA's.  I opened up a ticket with SuSE for some guidance on that.   I may have 
to trudge on with just a VSWITCH connection until I get that figured out, at 
least I can get all the proxy guests built, get DNS changes in, etc.   GDPS is 
a different animal, miles to go before I sleep.....

The VSWITCH depends on the controller virtual machines.  It and some related CP 
control blocks may be swapped out.

In a hyperswap, you can't do I/O to bring them back in.

Bill is correct regarding the requirements for the GDPS proxy servers.
