Hello,

When I generate an HACMP snapshot I get the following error (on both nodes cluster):

Before command completion, additional instructions may appear below.

Thank's for your help

Are you running a snapshot on a cluster that isn't fully config'd yet?
Have you configured the network cards? Not sure why you would get ifconfig error unless you don't have both of the ethernets config'd.

Do you have all the drivers installed for them? Run a lppchk -v on both systems to be sure you don't have any missing filesets for anything.
Hope that helps.

Yes, HACMP is already configured. I use Etherchannel with HACMP wich is well supported by IBM.

ent4=ent1, ent3
ent5=ent0, ent2

Question : Must I remove base interfcaces en0, en1, en2, en3 from AIX ?

ifconfig enx down
ifconfig enx detach
rmdev -dl enx

Thank's

I didn't see which version of HACMP are you runnning?

I don't see why you should have to remove those interfaces. HACMP doesn't care how many you have or that you're not using some of them.
Can you send your HACMP configuration for the topology?

Have you checked any log files for any further messages that may exist?

Hi again

Can you check if you have APAR IY93374 installed? If so then rmdev -l enX X being the 2 etherchannel devices can be a good idea

Thanks
