Identifying the ipmp4 Address of the Storage Appliance

To mount a ZFS share on the vServer, you must identify the IP address of the storage appliance on the IPoIB-vserver-shared-storage network, also known as the ipmp4 address.

  1. SSH to the ZFS Storage Appliance as root.
  2. Run the following command:
    storage_node> configuration net interfaces show
    
  3. From the output of the command, note the ipmp4 address.
    slce23sn01:> configuration net interfaces show
    Interfaces:
     
    INTERFACE   STATE    CLASS LINKS       ADDRS                  LABEL
    igb0        up       ip    igb0        10.244.64.60/21        igb0
    igb1        offline  ip    igb1        10.244.64.61/21        igb1
    ipmp1       up       ipmp  pffff_ibp1  192.168.10.15/24       ipmp1
                               pffff_ibp0
    ipmp2       up       ipmp  p8001_ibp0  192.168.20.9/24        IB_IF_8001
                               p8001_ibp1
    ipmp3       up       ipmp  p8002_ibp0  192.168.21.9/24        IB_IF_8002
                               p8002_ibp1
    ipmp4       up       ipmp  p8005_ibp0  172.17.0.9/16          IB_IF_8005
                               p8005_ibp1
    p8001_ibp0  up       ip    p8001_ibp0  0.0.0.0/8              ibp0.8001
    p8001_ibp1  up       ip    p8001_ibp1  0.0.0.0/8              ibp1.8001
    p8002_ibp0  up       ip    p8002_ibp0  0.0.0.0/8              ibp0.8002
    p8002_ibp1  up       ip    p8002_ibp1  0.0.0.0/8              ibp1.8002
    p8005_ibp0  up       ip    p8005_ibp0  0.0.0.0/8              ibp0.8005
    p8005_ibp1  up       ip    p8005_ibp1  0.0.0.0/8              ibp1.8005
    pffff_ibp0  up       ip    pffff_ibp0  0.0.0.0/8              ibp0
    pffff_ibp1  up       ip    pffff_ibp1  0.0.0.0/8              ibp1
    

    In the example output, the ipmp4 address is 172.17.0.9.
