It is possible for an external Ethernet connection
to intermittently fail to come up after running the cluster_config
--init | --migrate command. You may see messages similar
to the following in the /var/log/nconfig.log file:
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.
