Networking
Networking information produced by commands is also peculiar to the vPar on which you've issued the command. Networking configuration of vPars is covered in Chapter 13. Let's take a look at the network interface on two different vPars configured on the same server. First let's look at the output of vPar
cable1
with a hostname of
cvhdcon3
:
#
hostname
cvhdcon3
#
netstat -I lan0
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll
lan0 1500 172.16.15.0 cvhdcon3 12785 0 11855 0 3
#
#
netstat -in

lan0 1500 172.16.15.0 172.16.15.36 12990 0 12052 0 3

This output shows that
lan0
is the network interface devoted to vPar
cable1
on this server. The
lanscan
output shows that this interface has a hardware path of
0/0/0/0
. This is on the Core I/O card that was configured as a component of the vPar when it was created with
-a io:0/0
. The LAN interface on the Core I/O card was not explicitly called out when
cable1
was created because
0/0/0/0
is an
implied
component of the Core I/O card at
0/0.
Let's now take a look at the second vPar running on this server, called
cable2
with a hostname of
cvhdcon4
:
#
hostname
cvhdcon4
#
netstat -I lan1
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll
lan1 1500 172.16.14.0 cvhdcon4 3463 0 1603 0 2
#
#
netstat -in
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll
lan1 1500 172.16.14.0 172.16.14.44 3819 0 1948 0 2
lo0 4136 127.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 916 0 916 0 0
#
#
lanscan
Hardware Station Crd Hdw Net-Interface NM MAC HP-DLPI DLPI
Path Address In# State NamePPA ID Type Support Mjr#
0/10/0/0 0x00306E0653E8 1 UP lan1 snap1 1 ETHER Yes 119
#
This output shows that
lan1
is the network interface devoted to vPar
cable2
on this server. The
lanscan
output shows that this interface has a hardware path of
0/10/0/0
. The LBA of
0/10
was configured as a component of the vPar when it was created with
-a io:0/10/
. Unlike the LAN interface on the Core I/O card that was an implied component, this LAN interface is in a separate PCI slot and LBA and therefore had to be specified explicitly when the vPar was created.
Running
lanadmin
on
cable1
produces more detailed output
related
to
lan0,
as shown in the following listing:

lanadmin
on
cable2
and see for what LAN interface it produces an output:

Producing information specific to the vPar in which you issue a command is what you can expect when working at the command line with vPars.
Next, let's take a look at a couple of GlancePlus/UX outputs.
