NAME
vip_control - manipulate virtual IP information for Xsan
SYNOPSIS
/System/Library/Filesystems/acfs.fs/Contents/bin/vip_control option
DESCRIPTION
vip_control provides a mechanism for editing, listing, activating and
deactivating virtual IPs (VIPs) for the Xsan system. Virtual IPs are
required when running in an HA configuration with deduplication or
replication enabled. Changes made to VIPs are not automatically copied
over to an MDC's HA peer. As such, any changes that are made to the
VIP configuration need to be done on both HA MDCs. vip_control does
not update firewall rules. Changes to VIP configurations may require
additional changes to the firewall rules of the system.
OPTIONS
-h Display help
-a Activate all configured VIPs
-d Deactivate all configured VIPs
-i Show VIP status along with physical NIC status
-l Show configured VIPs in a compact format
-u vip_str
Update the VIP configuration with the vip_str string. This re-
places the contents of the VIP configuration file. The format
of vip_str is as follows:
MAC address, IPV4 VIP, netmask, IPV6 VIP, prefix length
Each field in a VIP entry is separated by a comma, and each VIP entry
can be separated by either a newline or a semicolon. Typically, the
semicolon is used.
The following is an example of setting up two VIPs:
# vip_control -u "0030482D38F6,10.0.0.2,255.255.255.0,,;0030482d38f7,10.1.0.2,255.255.255.0,,;"
