1. Verify LLT is running and start if needed

# systemctl status llt
   llt.service - VERITAS Low Latency Transport (LLT)
   Loaded: loaded (/opt/VRTSllt/llt; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Wed 2019-08-21 11:45:54 IST; 5h 58min ago
   Process: 7554 ExecStart=/opt/VRTSllt/llt start 2>&1 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)
   Main PID: 7554 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)

If status shows Failure, please check error message and manually start LLT.

 #systemctl start llt

2. Confirm LLT is up

 #systemctl status llt
 #lltstat -nvv active

3. Start Gab

 #systemctl start gab
 #systemctl status gab

  #gabconfig -a
  GAB Port Memberships
  ===================================
  Port a gen a36e0003 membership 01

3. Start VXFEN

 #systemctl start vxfen
 #systemctl status vxfen

Port B (VXFEN) should now be up

  #gabconfig -a
  GAB Port Memberships
  ===================================
  Port a gen a36e0003 membership 01
  Port b gen a36e0003 membership 01

This is caused by gab not being up when vxfen is trying to configure.

Please verify LLT is up and running or configured to start on boot.
