teaming.txt Driver File Contents (sp33495.exe)

This document and associated shell script, "bonding", are provided as 
an example of how to set up a team and automate its start up.  

Note: the shell script, "bonding" is only necessary for automation with SLES 7
and UL 1.0.  By following the Red Hat instructions below, the user can 
utilize native Red Hat network automation.

This specific example creates a two-port team in "active-backup" mode.  The 
primary adapter, "HP NCx7xx Gigabit Server Adapter", utilizes the bcm5700 
driver.  The back up adapter, "HP NC31xx Fast Ethernet Adapter", utilizes
the e100 driver.  These two server adapters are the only two in the server.  The 
steps below must be adjusted if other server adapters are in the system. 
These instructions are valid only for HP supported Red Hat distributions as well
as SLES 7 and UL 1.0.  Please see the associated bonding-x.x.x-src.txt file 
for HP supported Linux distributions.

First, ensure the latest supported network and bonding drivers are installed from
http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/servers/linux/softwaredrivers.html.



Red Hat Enterprise Linux Distributions
================================================================================

   1] Remove any lines in /etc/modules.conf (/etc/modprobe.conf on RHEL4) that reference eth0, eth1, or
      bonding, then add the following lines

          alias bond0 bonding
          options bond0 primary=eth0 mode=1 miimon=200
          alias eth0 bcm5700
          alias eth1 e100


   2] Create a file named /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0 containing
      the following (change the addresses for your particular environment):

          DEVICE=bond0
          IPADDR=192.168.1.1
          NETMASK=255.255.255.0
          NETWORK=192.168.1.0
          BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
          ONBOOT=yes
          BOOTPROTO=none
          USERCTL=no


   3] Create a file named /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 containing
      the following:

          DEVICE=eth0
          USERCTL=no
          ONBOOT=yes
          MASTER=bond0
          SLAVE=yes
          BOOTPROTO=none


   4] Create a file named /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 containing
      the following:

          DEVICE=eth1
          USERCTL=no
          ONBOOT=yes
          MASTER=bond0
          SLAVE=yes
          BOOTPROTO=none

   5] Reboot the server.

   6] Verify team configuration by viewing /proc/net/bonding/bond0, or running
      "/etc/init.d/bonding status". Monitoring /var/log/messages may be
      helpful in diagnosing teaming configuration problems. On RHEL3, for
      details on configuring a bond (team) refer to
      /usr/share/doc/bonding-x.x.x/bonding.txt (where x.x.x is the version of
      the HP tested and approved bonding driver)


SuSE Distributions
================================================================================

   1] Remove any lines in /etc/modules.conf (/etc/modprobe.conf on SLES 9) that reference eth0, eth1, or
      bonding - no lines need to be added to this file since everything 
      will be done in the startup script.

   2] Copy the bonding script (provided on the Software and Documentation CD 
      at /linux/bonding/bonding to /etc/init.d,
      a listing of the script is provided at the end of this document.

   3] Execute the following command

          chmod +x /etc/init.d/bonding

   4] Execute one of the following commands so the team will start
      after reboots

          insserv bonding
          chkconfig bonding on

   5] Reboot the server.

   6] Verify team configuration by viewing /proc/net/bonding/bond0, or running
      "/etc/init.d/bonding status". Monitoring /var/log/messages may be 
      helpful in diagnosing teaming configuration problems.
