Summary:
Even though IP Network Multipathing (IPMP) groupname was used, MultiNICB overwrote the IPMP group assignment.
Configuration:
group IPGrp1 (
SystemList = { gimli = 1, legolas = 2 }
)
IPMultiNICB vip1 (
Enabled = 0
BaseResName = mnicb
Address = "25.3.10.128"
NetMask = "255.255.248.0"
)
Proxy ipgrp1proxy (
TargetResName = mnicb
)
group Multi_NicB (
SystemList = { gimli = 1, legolas = 2 }
Parallel = 1
)
MultiNICB mnicb (
Enabled = 0
UseMpathd = 1
MpathdCommand = "/sbin/in.mpathd"
Device @gimli = { hme0 = 0, qfe0 = 1 }
Device @legolas = { hme0 = 0 }
IgnoreLinkStatus = 0
DefaultRouter = "10.85.0.1"
)
