Network Interface Messages

The PanPulse process writes messages to the Matrix Server event log

about the state of the network interfaces configured in the matrix. If you

receive a message that a network interface is down or unavailable, or that

a network interface does not meet the interface requirements, you will

need to take corrective actions.

A Network Interface Is Down or Unavailable

These messages indicate that there is a problem with the specified

network interfaces. The hardware may have failed, or a network interface

may have been taken down administratively. Check the status of the

network interface and repair it if necessary.

If PanPulse determines that one or more local interfaces are down or

unavailable, it will report messages such as the following:

Interface <ethn> address <xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx> has gone down

Interface <ethn> has gone down after a send failure

Interface <ethn> has gone down after an attempt to assign an

outbound multicast interface: <No such device>

Interface <eth_n> has been marked down because its interface

flags do not include IFF_UP

If PanPulse determines that the interfaces are down or unavailable on

another server, it will report the following:

No interfaces are responding on host <xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx>
