Cannot bring vnet / vlan tagged device online automatically in Solaris 10

edited Aug 10, 2013 9:07PM in Oracle Solaris Networking (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

I have a Solaris 11 hypervisor with a Solaris 10 guest domain. I have one switch primary-vsw1 that is tagged to a half dozen vlans. 

When I create /etc/hostname.vnet252000 on the guest it fails with the following message:

 boot device: disk:a  File and args: 
SunOS Release 5.10 Version Generic_147440-01 64-bit

ip_arp_done: init failed
Failed to configure IPv4 interface(s): vnet252000

Aug 10 12:15:44 svc.startd[10]: network/physical:default misconfigured: transitioned to maintenance (see 'svcs -xv' for details)

Howdy, Stranger!
