NAME

 network.conf - SMCT configuration file to define the network parameters for the cluster

SYNOPSIS

 SMCT_CONFIG_DIR/models/network.conf
 smct-config-dir/models/network.conf

DESCRIPTION

Do not use the SMCT tool with the current patch level of the Foundation Services product.

Configure the network.conf file to define specific network information used by the target cluster. This includes IP addresses, network, and netmask information for physical and virtual cluster network interfaces, and default routes used to access the cluster.

A pre-configured network.conf template file for each example hardware configuration is available in the /opt/SUNWcgha/nhsmct/etc/models/ directory.

PARAMETERS

The following are the parameters of the network.conf file:

{ ELEMENT network name type network-type number network-number
netmask network-netmask
}+
{ ELEMENT ip name address ip-address type ip-type {alias name}*
	BELONG_TO network name}+
{ ELEMENT router name
	USE ip name}+
  • name

    Unique ID as an ASCII string.

  • network-type

    Network type. This parameter must be set to IPV4.

  • network-number

    IP network number in standard IP network number format (dotted notation), for example, 10.101.1.0.

  • network-netmask

    IP network netmask in standard IP network netmask format (dotted notation), for example, 255.255.255.0.

  • ip-type

    IP address type. This can be one of the following:

    • FLOATING

      The floating address triplet of the master node referenced by the configuration element domain in cluster.conf file. Alternatively, you can specify the floating address used by the Node State Manager, which is defined in the cluster.conf file.

    • STATIC

      All IP addresses that are not of type FLOATING.

  • ip-address

    IP address in standard IP address format (dotted notation), for example, 10.101.1.10.

    You can choose to configure IP addresses of any class for your nodes. However, the following rules apply:

    • The nodeid in the cluster.conf file must be a decimal representation of the host part of the corresponding IP address.

    • The host part of the IP address for the NIC0, NIC1, and cgtp0 interfaces of a node must be the same.

EXAMPLES

The following is an example of a network.conf file for a four-node cluster:
