IPMP not functioning
Hi gurus ...
I followed all the steps mentioned in the Sun Blue Print publication to set up IPMP on my Sol 9 sparc box. Have 3 interfaces.. hme0, ge0 & ge1. Am trying to setup IPMP between ge0 & ge1.
The following is the conf details...
ash-2.05# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=1000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 8232 index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
ge0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2

ge1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 3

vweb-001# more /etc/hostname.ge1
vweb-001-ge1 netmask + broadcast + failover up group voc-ipmp addif vweb-001-tes
t2 netmask + broadcast + deprecated -failover up
After this setup ..in order to test my config ..i removed the ge0 cable frm my server .....on the console of my server i got the message that ge0 has been disconnected ..but after that nothing happens ..the ge0 does not get marked as failed & it does not failover the IP.
Would much appreciate if anyone can point out what am i missing here ?
Pls pls pls am really desperate ...pls help me...
Thanks in advance
