Managing Serviceguard Extension for SAP on Linux (IA64 Integrity and x86_64), April 2009

Bringing up interface eth0.01: [ OK ]
The IPv6 address and network interface can be checked with the following command:
ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:12:79:94:D4:C8
inet addr:16.41.101.147 Bcast:16.41.101.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: 2001::101:147/24 Scope:Global
inet6 addr: fe80::212:79ff:fe94:d4c8/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
Repeat these steps for all RHEL nodes in the cluster.
Installation Step: IP1230
The followings steps show how to enable IPv6 for a SLES node. IPv6 address 2001::101:147/24 will be
used for this node.
First determine the configuration file by running the ifconfig command and matching the MAC address
in the output with the filename ifcfg-eth-id-00:13:21:20:52:2e Edit and set
IPADDR1=2001::101:146/24 in the following file:
vi /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-00:13:21:20:52:2e
BOOTPROTO='static'
BROADCAST=''
ETHTOOL_OPTIONS=''
IPADDR='16.41.101.146'
MTU=''
NAME='Compaq NC7782 Gigabit Server Adapter (PCI-X, 10,100,1000-T)'
NETMASK='255.255.255.0'
NETWORK=''
REMOTE_IPADDR=''
STARTMODE='auto'
UNIQUE='rBUF.RfYI5sfd_88'
USERCONTROL='no'
_nm_name='bus-pci-0000:03:06.0'
PREFIXLEN=''
IPADDR1=2001::101:146/24
To enable the new network configuration restart the network subsystem with the command:
rcnetwork restart
Shutting down network interfaces:
eth0 device: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10)
eth0 configuration: eth-id-00:13:21:20:52:2e
Check the settings with the ifconfig command:
ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:13:21:20:52:2E
inet addr:16.41.101.146 Bcast:16.41.101.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
