Example hosts file
The following host file was created for the example networks shown on page 37
and page 38 . This host file is used for both non-redundant and redundant networks
since teamed network adapters share the same IP address. Use this example as a
model for creating your own host file.
192.168.100.101 XP1
192.168.201.101 XP1_fc0
192.168.100.111 XP1_UIM
192.168.201.111 XP1_UIM_fc0
192.168.200.111 XP1_he0 XP1_UIM_he0 # Streaming NIC of XP1_UIM
192.168.100.102 XP2
192.168.202.102 XP2_fc0
192.168.100.112 XP2_UIM
192.168.202.112 XP2_UIM_fc0
192.168.200.112 XP2_he0 XP2_UIM_he0 # Streaming NIC of XP2_UIM
192.168.101.103 XP3
192.168.203.103 XP3_fc0
192.168.101.113 XP3_UIM
192.168.203.113 XP3_UIM_fc0
192.168.204.113 XP3_he0 XP3_UIM_he0 # Streaming NIC of XP3_UIM
192.168.101.104 XP4
192.168.203.104 XP4_fc0
192.168.101.114 XP4_UIM
192.168.203.114 XP4_UIM_fc0
192.168.204.114 XP4_he0 XP4_UIM_he0 # Streaming NIC of XP4_UIM
Note that Profile systems and their corresponding UIMs have unique subnets for
their point to point Fibre Channel connections. As shown, XP1 and XP2 and their
UIMs have unique Fibre Channel IP subnets, 192.168.201.xx and 192.168.202.xx.
When a switch is used to make the Fibre Channel connection, one subnet may be
used. As shown, XP3 and XP4 and their corresponding UIMs are on the same Fibre
Channel IP subnet, 192.168.203.xx. (Refer to
“Specify the subnets required” on
page 37 .)
Also notice that the IP address for the 1000BT connection used for streaming is
aliased to both the UIM-DIS-GEIP and the Profile XP host names.
For example:
192.168.200.101XP1_he0 XP1_UIM_he0 #Streaming NIC of XP1_UIM
4. Save the file and exit Notepad.
5. Copy this new master hosts file onto all Profile systems and UIMs on the network.
NOTE: Errors in this configuration step will render your media exchange network
inoperable. Take great care to enter all information correctly, then recheck for
errors.
