Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual (H06.16+, J06.05+)
eth0 ip address -netmask 255.255.252.0. Then issue the SCF CLIM START command
to restart the CLIM after the changes.
An IPv6 address cannot be assigned to eth0 interface.
The -jumbo option cannot be used for eth0 and eth0:0.
If the Maximum Transfer Unit (MTU) of an active interface is changed using the jumbo option,
a failover of that interface might occur.
The loopback interface, lo, cannot be modified.
Not all ethernet cards support all linespeeds and duplex modes.
Fibre channel supports only –autonegotiation on.
Gigabit ethernet standard requires auto-negotiation to be ON. You cannot specify SPEED 1000
Mb/s and AUTONEGOTIATION OFF.
A MAC address can be modified only for an interface that is DOWN (stopped). Therefore,
effectively, eth0 MAC address cannot be changed.
When a MAC address is being modified, the interface must not have been failed over.
The software MAC addresses of all slaves of a bonding interface must be unique in bonding
modes 5 (balance-tlb) and 6 (balance-alb). A check is performed when you attempt to change
the bonding mode.
If the eth0 IP address is being changed, the known host information SSHDB on the NonStop
host must be modified. Here are the required steps:
1. At the TACL prompt, enter:
Tacl> sshcom open $zssp0; mode client;
info knownhost *:old-eth0-ip-address.22;
exit
2. For each entry listed above (one per user), issue this command:
sshcom open $zssp0; mode client;
delete knownhost user-name:old-eth0-ip-address.22;
exit
The old-eth0-ip-address is the IP address configured on eth0 that is being changed
to a new IP address.
