SUMMARY: Help with plumbing interface when moving from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10.

I fixed my own problem but thought this might be useful to someone on
the list.



SOLUTION:



The problem is exactly that, Solaris 10 maps ce4 (from Solaris 8) to
ce2.

I verified this by checking the MAC ADDRESS of the Ethernet board in
question.

It is always a good idea to gather ALL the necessary data before you
rebuild a box!





PROBLEM:



I am moving from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10.

Now I cannot bring up ce4, where previously it brought it up fine with
no problems under Solaris 8.



Rebooting with command: boot -r

Boot device: /pci@1f,700000/scsi@2/disk@0,0:d  File and args: -r

SunOS Release 5.10 Version Generic 64-bit

Copyright 1983-2005 Sun Microsystems, Inc.  All rights reserved.

Hardware watchdog enabled

ce4: DL_ATTACH_REQ failed: DL_BADPPA

ce4: DL_BIND_REQ failed: DL_OUTSTATE

ce4: DL_PHYS_ADDR_REQ failed: DL_OUTSTATE

ce4: DL_NOTIFY_ACK failed: DL_OUTSTATE

Failed to plumb IPv4 interface(s): ce4



I am assuming it renamed ce4 to either ce2 or ce1, investigating this
now.
