Add on NICS not being set to Running State
Problem: NIC 1 and NIC 2 get set to Failed and not running after Solaris Kernel header appears and as Watchdog gets enabled. The 2 V440 onboard CE interfaces are not affected.
I have swapped cards from one system to a 3rd V440, and the cards check out ok. I have replaced cables, switches. I have verified switch functionality with PC w/1gb nic in it. I have patched both Cluster nodes to Solaris 10 8/11 patch set (Kernel 147440-01). I have made sure the CE driver is the same (modinfo | grep CE ...(v1.174).
