Hi all,
I'm trying to setup trunking on an old Sun V890 system we've got.
We're running the latest version of Solaris 10, patched within an inch
of it's life.
I've install Sun Trunking V1.3, plus patch 118777-17 on the system as
well. I'd prefer to the use the new standard, dladm, to configure
LACP, but we're working with old hardware have on hand.
The Sun Gigaswitch 4 port PCI-X card is based on the Cassini (ce)
chip. I've got all four ports:
# uname -a
SunOS sjdb1 5.10 Generic_144488-04 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V890
# dladm show-dev
ge0 link: down speed: 0 Mbps duplex:
unknown
eri0 link: up speed: 100 Mbps duplex: full
ce0 link: up speed: 1000 Mbps duplex: full
ce1 link: up speed: 1000 Mbps duplex: full
ce2 link: down speed: 0 Mbps duplex: unknown
ce3 link: down speed: 0 Mbps duplex: unknown
So I've got two ports, ce0 and ce1, ready to roll. They're unplumbed
and not in use at all. So now I use the 'nettr' command like all my
googling and reading of the docs says I should:
# /etc/opt/SUNWconn/bin/nettr -setup 1 device=ce members=0,1 policy=1
Dec 3 13:11:51 sjdb1 ce: WARNING: Incompatible Trunking 0 version
Dec 3 13:11:51 sjdb1 last message repeated 1 time
Dec 3 13:11:51 sjdb1 ce: NOTICE: Please update to latest Trunking
Patch
Dec 3 13:11:51 sjdb1 last message repeated 1 time
Dec 3 13:11:51 sjdb1 trslm: NOTICE: trunk link (ce1): DL_ERROR_ACK for
DL_BIND_REQ(1), errno 0, unix 0
/etc/opt/SUNWconn/bin/nettr: ioctl failed: I/O error
and I'm stuck. I've updated to the latest patches. I've googled.
I've thought about doing the old SCSI trick of waving a dead chicken
over the sucker. No luck...
I guess it could be a problem with how the switch ports are setup, but
when I try to do the same command on the two unconnected ports (ce2,
ce3) I get the same error. Or if I try the command using just one
port, either hooked up or not. Nothing, nada, zilch.
Thanks,
John
