Hi All, I have bfu''ed to net-virt_xb-21_snv_81_021308. The dladm command on my machine does not have create-etherstub option. Please let me know what could be the issue. Thanks Khushal

On OpenSolaris 2009.06 I created a flow, half a dozen VNICs, and I set some properties, and everything was working, then I rebooted my system and everything disappeared from show-vnic, show-flow, and show-prop. When I tried to re-create the objects, dladm said they already existed. While I could not see the objects, I could delete them. Example: # dladm show-vnic # dladm create-vnic -l bge0

After googling around and reading the material on the opensolaris.org xvm community site, I still do not understanding the configuration of networking and would appreciate some assistance. Problem: I have successfully installed an hvm domU running Windows XP on opensolaris 2005.11 (build 94), and when the laptop (lenovo t61, core2 9300) is connected via the e1000g0 interface networking works

In current Crossbow''s implementation, vlan tag seems to be unconditionally retained for promisc mode listener even when MAC_OPEN_FLAGS_TAG_DISABLE is not specified. I saw comments in mac_rx_deliver() saying that this is deliberately designed like this. I''m wondering why we design it like this (choose not to respect MAC_OPEN_FLAGS_TAG_DISABLE flag for promisc mode listener)? Or

Basically what I am trying to attempt here is to have multiple vm''s in a private network that is seperate from any of the physical networking devices. So far all I have really been able to do is connect the vm''s to an etherstub, but cannot get them to communicate with eachother. I have been using this (http://blogs.sun.com/droux/entry/private_virtual_networks_for_solaris) as a

I have installed on a VirtualBox vm the crossbow ISO Now I''m trying to create the network map described in the "getting started" pdf I have this situation: On global zone, I have the real NIC: e1000g0 with ip 10.0.2.15 (VirtualBox NAT this IP, I can get web access with it) I have created an etherstub (etherstub n?2) with 2 vnics (vnic5 and vnic6), I''ve plumbed

Hi Folks, I have a snv_105 sxce host that I just can''t get to work as expected with crossbow + zones. My test host persephone, is a virtual machine running under VMware ESXi 3.5, with 2 virtual network cards (e1000), all on the same flat network/subnet. It started life just 2 days ago with a clean install of snv_95, and I LUed to 105 yesterday. To rule out any sharing issue, the first

How do I create a vnic that represents the factory assigned MAC address of my physical nic? The bge device in my system (x2100) appears to support 4 MAC addresses. The driver reserves the first as the ''primary/default'' address and allows manipulation of the other three via the MAC_CAPAB_MULTIADDRESS interface. I''d like to use vnics on this system, as I have Xen guest

Folks, I just posted an updated Crossbow virtualization architecture document. The new revision is available at: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/crossbow/Docs/crossbow-virt.pdf The main changes are the addition of support for multiple MAC addresses per client, and an explicit separation between consolidation private and project private MAC API entry points. See in particular the

Hi the Crossbow team, I am testing my UV fastpath bits and I found several issues that need your suggestion: 1. dladm show-usage won''t work if UV fastpath is enabled. Since the link usage data are collected based on the statistics of the mac_client_impl_t, and UV fastpath skips the GLDv3 processing, that won''t be available. I don''t see a solution for this except

Hi All, >From the design documents, I see there is an option "DLADM_VNIC_OPT_NODUPCHECK" for checking if the vnic MAC is unique on the same physical NIC. I have a question here. Does crossbow check if the MAC address is unique on the same subnet? E.g, create a vnic on hostA with hostB''s MAC address. Thanks, Karol

Hi. Can a virtual switch have more than one physical NIC? Or, can a VNIC have more than one NIC? (this is the same question, I think)? emike

Hi everyone, I''m Ezequiel from Buenos Aires. I''m new in this list, so please forgive me if my questions are not the correct one''s fro this alias.

Using OpenSolaris 2008.11 build 110. Created vnic''s and etherstub''s and they are displayed using dladm show-links but when the server is rebooted a ''dladm show-link'' is empty although the vnic and etherstub devices are still there and function properly. That is a real inconvenience, so why do the no longer show after a reboot or shutdown/start? Is there a

Following is a short description on assigning priorities to a link (via dladm). Flows will have a similar mechanism (via flowadm). thanks, -venu ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The components associated with a link or flow, such as Soft Ring Sets, Soft Rings and squeues, have kernel threads processing inbound/outbound packets.

Howdy, I just installed the crossbow snapshot from opensolaris.org, and bumped into an issue when attempting to create a virtual nic: $ dladm create-vnic -i 192.168.1.101 -d ni0 2 dladm: VNIC creation failed: No such file or directory (unknown diagnostic) When I truss the process, it looks like it''s failing when attempting to open the vnic pseudo-device: 100878/1:
