 I have a couple of clusters running Solaris 8, 10, VCS 4.x , 5.x 
 I'm running IPMP on my public links and I want to configure  public interface as a low-priority link, the existing 2 hearbeats are on differnet vlan's.
Can someone pls send me the steps  to configure the  same online without  bringingdown the clusters and service groups.

sunguru, As bge0 is a public

sunguru,

As bge0 is a public interface, you would want this to be a low-pri link (in Sandeep's command to do this online he has done this by specifying the -l option)

Thus the new line should be as follows (note: be careful correct spacing is preserved - your post appears to have compressed/removed spaces between the dashes which should not be the case in the actual file)

link-lowpri bge0 /dev/bge:0 - ether - -

substituting bge0 into Sandeep's example command, this becomes:
lltconfig -l -t bge0 -d /dev/bge:0 -b ether

If this post has helped you, please vote or mark as solution
