Multiple RS/6000 SPs and Multiple GRFs

1. The file /etc/gratm.conf needs the configuration statements for the port

used:

Traffic_Shape name=high_speed_high_quality \

peak=155000 sustain=155000 burst=2048 qos=high

Interface ga020 traffic_shape=high_speed_high_quality

PVC ga020 0/132 proto=ip traffic_shape=high_speed_high_quality

2. The file /etc/grifconfig.conf has the following entries:

gt010 192.168.13.4 255.255.255.0 - mtu 65520

ga020 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.0 - mtu 9180

3. The file /etc/grroute.conf has the following line:

192.168.14.0 255.255.255.0 10.1.1.1

This will set the correct route to the other SP Switch network over the
ATM interface automatically; of course, this route could also be set
manually every time the GRF is rebooted.

4. The SP Switch Router Adapter card is connected to the SP Switch and

configured, too. Check with

SDRGetObjects switch_responds

on the CWS

and use

Eunfence

if needed.

5. On the nodes in SP21, the following route needs to be set:

route add -net 192.168.13 -netmask 255.255.255.0 -mtu 9180 \

192.168.14.4

6. On the nodes in SP2, the following route needs to be set:

route add -net 192.168.14 -netmask 255.255.255.0 -mtu 9180 \

192.168.13.4

The above command should be given in one line, the \ is to show where
the line break occurred during printing. To avoid any pitfalls, set the MTU
size explicitly to the size of the ATM adapter.

Hint: You must not use SMIT

to set this route and put it into the ODM. The

SP Switch is not operational at the time, this route would be set during
boot time. Therefore this route would be put onto another, already
available network interface, for example the Control Ethernet, and this is
definitely not what you want to happen.

Use a separate /etc/rc.routes shell script that is run only after an

Estart

or

an

Eunfence

was issued, or use some other mechanisms to have this route

set only after the css0 interfaces on the SP nodes are up and running.

Setup is done now, and every node in SP2 should now be able to

ping

every

node in SP21 and vice versa.

5. Check for correct routing entries on all nodes in SP21:
