Configuring for failover:
The failover feature currently is supported by OS/2,
Windows NT

, and IntraNetWare. The setup required for
each operating system follows.
OS/2
1. Add the redundant NIC adapter according to the
instructions provided with the adapter and in
“Adapters” on page 161.
2. Use the ServerGuide CDs to install the AMD PCNet
Ethernet Family adapter device driver.
3. Using the MPTS Utility program, select the driver from
the list and select the Edit button.
Note
Only one driver instance needs to be loaded for
each redundant pair of Ethernet controllers.
4. Change the PermaNet Server Feature keyword to
TRUE and specify the Primary and Standby slots that
contain the redundant pair. Refer to “System board
component locations” on page 279 for the locations
and slot numbers of the PCI slots. The integrated
controller is located in slot E (PCI primary bus 0, slot
14).
5. To enable the writing of messages to the
IBMCOM\LANTRAN.LOG file when a failover occurs:
a. Copy the file PCNETOS2.EXE from the root
directory of the diskette created using the
ServerGuide CDs to the hard disk drive.
b. Add the following statement to the CONFIG.SYS
file:
Run=
d
:\
path
\PCNETOS2.EXE
where d and path are the drive and path to
which you copied PCNETOS2.EXE.
6. Restart the server.
The failover function is now enabled.
Windows NT
1. Add the redundant NIC adapter according to the
instructions provided with the adapter and in
“Adapters” on page 161.

Ethernet Family adapter device driver.

then select the Network icon, then the Adapters tab.

redundant pair and then select the Properties...
