[zones-discuss] Re: Failover IP-Address in Zone
Are you using Sun Cluster by any chance? If not, you can accomplish what Unfortunatly Sun Cluster is not an option yet. I'm looking for a way to achieve this with standard OS tools. This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org

Ahh...that's too bad :) I'm looking for a way to achieve this with standard OS tools. In that case you'll need to have something running in the global zone control the plumbing and unplumbing of the IP address in the NGZ. That is, you can't have the failover IP address be a part of the zones' configuration.

I have been meaning to file one for quite some time but just haven't gotten around to it. The way I work around this is I have a tool used for managing zones (similar in many respects to the recently announced zonemgr) that has enable and disable subcommands. Among other things, the disable subcommand comments network interfaces. That is, it adds an attribute (or multiple) that includes the information about the interface and removes the net resource(s). I then have an uncomment function that reverses the work done by the comment function. Mike -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org

I have been meaning to file one for quite some time but just haven't gotten around to it. Which this is broken? I haven't verified it yet, but I am pretty sure that I can now boot a server with boot -m none (or is it boot -o milestone=none?) and have the global zone come up without networking. Presumably, I would want the same to happen if I boot the zone. This is not good: # zoneadm -z z1 boot -- -s # zlogin z1 # svcs | grep network | grep online online 12:38:13 svc:/network/loopback:default online 12:38:14 svc:/network/physical:default online 12:38:15 svc:/milestone/network:default # uname -sv SunOS snv_53 Neither is this: # zoneadm -z z1 boot -- -m milestone=none # zlogin z1 # svcs |grep network | grep online no network service online, but # ifconfig -a lo0:1: flags=2001000849UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL mtu 8232 index 1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff00 bge0:1: flags=201000843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS mtu 1500 index 2 inet 10.11.102.26 netmask ff00 broadcast 10.11.102.255 Thanks, Zoram -- Zoram Thanga::Sun Cluster Development::http://blogs.sun.com/zoram ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
