cfglnagg command

Purpose

Add or remove adapters from a Link Aggregation or change Link Aggregation attributes.

Syntax

cfglnagg { -add [ -backup ] | -rm } LinkAggregation Adapter

cfglnagg [ -f ] -attr Attribute=NewValue LinkAggregation ...

Description

This command adds adapters to a Link Aggregation or removes adapters from a Link Aggregation. This command can also be used to modify Link Aggregation attributes. It is not necessary to detach the Link Aggregation's interface to add or remove adapters or modify most Link Aggregation attributes.

Changing the use_jumbo_frame attribute requires the Link Aggregation to be detached. If this attribute is specified, the cfglnagg command detaches the Link Aggregation before modifying the use_jumbo_frame attributes, then brings the Link Aggregation back up. The user is prompted to continue unless the -f flags is specified.

Use the lsdev command with the -attr flag to view all attributes associated with a Link Aggregation device, including adapters.

Note: To create a Link Aggregation see the mkvdev command.

Flags

-add	Adds the specified Adapter to the specified Link Aggregation. If the adapter must be added as a back up adapter, the -backup flag must be specified.
-attr	Specifies an attribute of the specified Link Aggregation.
-backup	Specifies that the Adapter is being added as a back up adapter.
-f	Instructs the cgflnagg command to not prompt the user.
-rm	Deletes the specified Adapter from the specified Link Aggregation. The specified adapter can be either a primary or back up adapter.

Parameters

Adapter	Specifies the adapter to add or delete.
LinkAggregation	Specifies the Link Aggregation.

Exit Status

See Exit status for Virtual I/O Server commands.
