2.
Use the
set nic
command to change the IP address, as shown in the following example. In this
example, the IP address of the
south3
server on the network is changed from the default value that
was assigned to it when the network was first configured to
16.123.123.110
:
sfs> set nic network=nic2 server=south3 ip=16.123.123.110

Changing the attributes of bonded Gigabit Ethernet network
s
The attributes of bonded Gigabit Ethernet interconnects are stored in the
bonding_options
attribute. If
there is more than one bonded network, the attributes are common to all bonded networks.You can change
these attributes using the
set attribute
command.
There are only two supported modes of bonding: these are 802.3ad (the default) and balance-alb. If you
are using the 802.3ad mode, you must configure your switch accordingly. For more information, refer to
Chapter 2 of the HP StorageWorks Scalable File Share System Installation and Upgrade Guide.
To display the existing attributes of bonded Gigabit Ethernet networks, enter the following command:
sfs> show attribute bonding_options
Attribute Value/Description
-------------------------------- -------------------------------------
bonding_options mode=802.3ad
Bonding device options, set in /etc/modprobe.conf
To change the attributes, enter the
set attribute
command, as shown in the following example:
sfs> set attribute bonding_options="mode=balance-alb"
To bring the changes into effect, enter the
configure server all
command.

Partitioning an InfiniBand interconnect
If you want to configure the HP SFS system to use InfiniBand partitions, you must reconfigure the interconnect.
To reconfigure an InfiniBand interconnect to add partitioning, perform the following steps:
1.
Unmount all file systems on all client nodes.
2.
Log in to the administration server and stop the file systems by entering the
stop filesystem
filesystem_name
command for each file system.
3.
Enter the
show filesystem
command and verify that all MDS and OST services used by the file
systems are stopped.
4.
Enter the
configure system
command, and then enter
2
to select the
Configure Networks
menu, as follows:
sfs> configure system
1) System
2) Configure Networks
3) Network Services
4) Management Network
5) iLO Access
6) Storage
a) All of the above
e) Exit (save updates)
q) Quit (discard updates)
