Manually migrating a logical IP address Solaris

Use the haipswitch command to migrate the logical IP address from one interface to another.

This command shows the status of the interfaces for the specified MultiNICB resource:

# haipswitch -s MultiNICB_resname

In the following example, the command checks that both the from and to interfaces are associated with the specified MultiNICB resource. The command also checks if the to interface works. If the interface does not work, the command aborts the operation. It then removes the IP address on the from logical interface and configures the IP address on the to logical interface. It finally erases any previous failover information that is created by MultiNICB for this logical IP address.

# haipswitch MultiNICB_resname IPMultiNICB_resname ip addr \ netmask from to
