Analyze Why the Device Link Is
Missing
If the
ifconfig
(1M) command cannot find a device, the following message is
displayed in the output:
1. Check the OS.
■
If the OS is Oracle Solaris 10 8/10, skip to
.
■
If the OS is Oracle Solaris 11, use the
dladm
(1M) command to plumb the driver.
See the
dladm
(1M) man page for instructions.
2. Check that the Adapter is seated properly in its slot, that the cables are properly
attached, and that the LEDs are functioning.
3. Use the
prtconf
(1M) or
scanpci
(1M) command to ensure that the device is
installed.
4. If the device exists, check the
/etc/driver_aliases
file to ensure that the file
contains an
ixgbe
entry that corresponds to the name for the device.
5. If the entry exists, check the
/etc/path_to_inst
file to ensure that the file
contains an
ixgbe
entry.
Removing a device and reseating it in another slot does not always clean up the
device tree. If this is the case, you must remove the device tree and reboot the
system. See
Oracle Solaris Administration: Network Interfaces and Network
Virtualization
for more information.
