3.7.0 HP StorageWorks HP Scalable NAS File Serving Software administration guide - HP Scalable NAS 3.7 for Linux (AG513-96002, October 2009)

When you configure a network interface to allow, discourage, or exclude
administrative traffic, the setting applies to all interfaces within the same subnet on
all servers of the cluster.
Enable or disable a network interface for virtual
hosting
By default, all network interfaces are enabled for virtual hosting. To enable or disable
a network interface for virtual hosting, select that interface on the Servers window,
right-click, and then select either Enable Hosting or Disable Hosting as appropriate.
From the command line, use this command to disable virtual hosting:
mx netif disable <interface_ip> ...
Use the following command to enable virtual hosting:
mx netif enable <interface_ip> ...
Add or modify a network interface
When you add a server to the cluster, its network interfaces are automatically
configured into the cluster. Occasionally, you may want to preconfigure a network
interface. For example, you can add a network interface that either does not currently
exist on a server, or that is on a server that is down. You might also want to modify
an existing interface.
NOTE:
The definition for a network interface should not be modified while HP Scalable NAS
is running. Attempting to do this can cause adverse effects. If any part of a network
interface definition needs to be changed, stop HP Scalable NAS on the affected
server, shut down the network, and then make the change. When the change is
complete, bring up the network and restart HP Scalable NAS.
To add a network interface, select the server for that interface on the Servers window,
right-click, and select Add Network Interface.
To modify an existing network interface, select that interface, right-click, and select
Properties. The network interface must be down; you cannot modify an “ up” network
interface.
