[Lustre-discuss] multiple NLI's/interfaces to listen on?

[murray smigel]

I have exactly the same problem. 
[murray at nasmds ~]$ cat /etc/modprobe.conf
alias scsi_hostadapter aacraid
alias scsi_hostadapter1 sata_nv
alias ib0 ib_ipoib
alias ib1 ib_ipoib
alias net-pf-27 ib_sdp

options lnet networks=tcp0(eth0),tcp1(eth1),o2ib0(ib0)
alias eth0 forcedeth
alias eth1 forcedeth

[murray at nasmds ~]$ uname -a
Linux nasmds 2.6.18-53.1.14.el5_lustre.1.6.5.1smp #1 SMP Wed Jun 18 
19:45:15 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I can mount via eth0, and ib0, but mounts via eth1 fail.
If a client machine has both eth0 and eth1 networks enabled, then the 
mount via eth1 "seems" work,
but if I ifdown eth0, then the eth1 mount won't work.

thanks,
