You detected a failure of net0 in the IPMP group named ips1. The server hosting the failed NIC supports
dynamic reconfiguration. Which statement is true regarding the replacement of the hardware interface?
A.
The NIC must be replaced with an identical physical interface card type.
B.
The NIC will be configured after replacement with the dladm command.
C.
The devfsadm command will be used to discover the replacement NIC.
D.
The replacement NIC must occupy the same bus slot as the original NIC .
Explanation:
When an underlying interface of an IPMP group fails, a typical solution would be to replace the failed interface
by attaching a new NIC. RCM records the configuration information associated with any NIC that is detached
from a running system. If you replace a failed NIC with an identical NIC, then RCM automatically configures the
interface according to the persistent configurations that had been previously defined by using the ipadm
command.
Incorrect:
Not A, not D: You can replace a failed NIC with a different NIC, provided that both are the same type, such as
Ethernet. In this case, RCM plumbs the new interface after it is attached. If you did not use customized link
names when you first configured your interfaces, then you will have to configure the new NIC before you can
add the interface to the IPMP group.
Not C: devfsadm, devfsadmd- administration command for /dev and /devices
Note:
* 1. On the system with the IPMP group configuration, assume the Primary Administrator role or
become superuser.
2. Display the test address configuration
3. Remove the physical interface.
4. Replace the physical interface.
