metrocluster configuration-settings interface create
Create a MetroCluster interface
Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the admin privilege level.
Description
The metrocluster configuration-settings interface create command configures the network logical interfaces that will be used on a node in a MetroCluster setup to mirror NV logs and access remote storage.
This command is used for MetroCluster setups that are connected though IP links. MetroCluster setups that are connected through FC links do not require the user to provision network logical interfaces to mirror NV logs and access remote storage.
The metrocluster configuration-settings commands are run in the following order to set up MetroCluster:- metrocluster configuration-settings dr-group create,
- metrocluster configuration-settings interface create,
- metrocluster configuration-settings connection connect.
Before running this command , the node's DR group must be configured using the metrocluster configuration-settings dr-group create command. Run the metrocluster configuration-settings dr-group show command to verify that the node's DR group has been configured.
Parameters
- -cluster-name <Cluster name> - Cluster Name
- Use this parameter to specify the name of the local or partner cluster.
- -home-node <text> - Home Node
- Use this parameter to specify the home node in the cluster which hosts the interface.
- -home-port {<netport>|<ifgrp>} - Home Port
- Use this parameter to specify the home port provisioned for MetroCluster.
- -address <IP Address> - Network Address
- Use this parameter to specify the network address to be assigned to the home port.
- -netmask <Contiguous IP Mask> - Netmask
- Use this parameter to specify the network mask to be assigned to the interface.
- [-vlan-id <integer>] - Virtual LAN ID
- Use this parameter to specify the VLAN id.
Examples
This example shows configuring logical interface on MetroCluster IP capable port:
