HP XC System Software Release Notes for Version 3.0
Bringing up interface eth2: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot allocate
memory Failed to bring up eth2.
If the output from the ifconfig command does not contain the external interface, run the ifup
command. In the following example, external_device_name is the name of an external device such
as eth2.
# ifup external_device_name
Because this issue is intermittent, HP recommends that you run the cluster_config utility
directly from the console (and not remotely) in case you lose your external connection.
