    Hi. We are running two VIO servers, both setup using etherchannel /w 2x ent.

    EtherChannel / Link Aggregation: ent10
    Status: Available
    Attributes:
          adapter_names   ent0,ent4      EtherChannel Adapters
          alt_addr        0x3000014e19c2 Alternate EtherChannel Address
          auto_recovery   yes            Enable automatic recovery after failover
          backup_adapter  NONE           Adapter used when whole channel fails
          hash_mode       default        Determines how outgoing adapter is chosen
          interval        long           Determines interval value for IEEE 802.3ad mode
          mode            8023ad         EtherChannel mode of operation
          netaddr         10.64.24.1     Address to ping
          noloss_failover yes            Enable lossless failover after ping failure
          num_retries     3              Times to retry ping before failing
          retry_time      1              Wait time (in seconds) between pings
          use_alt_addr    yes            Enable Alternate EtherChannel Address
          use_jumbo_frame no             Enable Gigabit Ethernet Jumbo Frames

     

     

    My K51 Cisco switch is telling me that one of the ent from the VIO servers is down. I want to check on the VIO server which ent that has status down but when I try to do:

     

    entstat -d ent10 or ent0 or ent4 its telling me:

    entstat: 0909-003 Unable to connect to device ent10, errno = 19

    Im guessing this is because of the SEA, but I dont really know how to figure out what ent is down...
     

    Anyone? :)
