Table Of Contents
To specify a new cluster interface for a cluster with a dedicated management console, use the following
command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_nic -t -n IFNAME -h HOSTNAME
To specify a new virtual cluster interface for a cluster with an agile management console configuration,
use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_fm -c <VIF IP address> –d <VIF Device> -n <VIF Netmask>
-v cluster [–I <Local IP address_or_DNS hostname>]
Managing routing table entries
X9000 Software supports one route for each network interface in the system routing table. Entering
a new route for an interface overwrites the existing routing table entry for that interface.
Adding a routing table entry
To add a routing table entry, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_nic -r -n IFNAME -h HOSTNAME -A -R ROUTE
The following command adds a route for virtual interface eth2:232 on file serving node s2.hp.com,
sending all traffic through gateway gw.hp.com:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_nic -r -n eth2:232 -h s2.hp.com -A -R gw.hp.com
Deleting a routing table entry
If you delete a routing table entry, it is not replaced with a default entry. A new replacement route
must be added manually. To delete a route, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_nic -r -n IFNAME -h HOSTNAME -D
The following command deletes all routing table entries for virtual interface eth0:1 on file serving
node s2.hp.com:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_nic -r -n eth0:1 -h s2.hp.com -D
Deleting a network interface
Before deleting the interface used as the cluster interface on a file serving node, you must assign a
new interface as the cluster interface. See Changing the cluster interface on page 66.
To delete a network interface, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_nic -d -n IFNAME -h HOSTLIST
The following command deletes interface eth3 from file serving nodes s1.hp.com and s2.hp.com:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_nic -d -n eth3 -h s1.hp.com,s2.hp.com
Viewing network interface information
Executing the ibrix_nic command with no arguments lists all interfaces on all file serving nodes.
Include the -h option to list interfaces on specific hosts.
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_nic -l -h HOSTLIST
The following table describes the fields in the output.
