Verify the active ports in the failover group by issuing the following
command:
# nwmgr -v -c lanxxx
where
xxx
is the failover group instance number.
The Active Port(s) field lists the active ports.
If there are ports in the Not Ready Port(s) field, verify the port's
operation status by issuing the following command:
# nwmgr --st -c lanxxx
where
xxx
is the interface number.
If the Operation Status is UP, wait 30 seconds to see if the port becomes
ready or active. If it does not, see the steps for
Link partner
configured?
. Then, reset the port with the following command and
wait 30 seconds:
# nwmgr -r -c lanxxx
NOTE:
Only reset physical ports, not link aggregates that are members
of the failover group.
If the port does not appear in the Ready Port(s) list, delete the port and
add it with the following commands:
# nwmgr -d -A links=port-number -c lanxxx -S apa
# nwmgr -a -A links=port-number -A mode=LAN_MONITOR -c
lanxxx -S apa
Save the current configuration with the following command:
# nwmgr -s -A all --fr cu --sa -S apa
If the Operation Status is DOWN, do the following:
1.
If the port is a link aggregate, see the appropriate troubleshooting
section for the specific type of link aggregate to resolve the
problem.
2.
Check the cabling from the NIC to the switch. If the cable is
disconnected, reconnect it.
3.
Verify that the NIC is operating. See the steps for NIC operating?.
4.
Check the
nettl
log for any other messages.
5.
Remove the port from the failover group.
