3 For high availability, edit the /etc/modprobe.conf file and set the option
for
link monitoring .
The default value for
miimon is 0. The default value disables link
monitoring. Change the value to 100 milliseconds initially. Adjust it as
needed to improve performance. For example, type:
options bonding miimon=100 mode=6 max_bonds=2
4
In the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ directory, create or edit the
ifcfg-bond0 configuration file.
For example, using sample network parameters, the file appears as:
DEVICE=bond0
IPADDR=192.168.0.1
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
BROADCAST=192.168.0.255
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
USERCTL=no
The entries for NETMASK, NETWORK, and BROADCAST are optional.
DEVICE=
bondn is the required name for the bond, where n specifies the
bond number. IPADDR is the private IP address.
To use
bond0 as a virtual device, you must specify the devices that are
bonded as slaves.
5 For each device that is a bond member:
a In the directory /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ , edit the
ifcfg-ethn file:
DEVICE=ethn
HWADDR=<MAC ADDRESS>
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=no
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
b Ty p e service network restart and ignore all warnings.
