[Aoetools-discuss] Bringing up a aoe device in state 'down'

[Ian P. C. <po...@po...>]

Due to several reboots of the vblade server I'm running, the aoe device
on a client machine was showing as:

      e0.0         0.000GB   eth1 down,closewait

It was in use by LVM, so I figured out how to fix it using 'dmsetup
remove'.  Having removed all the LVM devices, it's now showing as down:

      e0.0         0.000GB   eth1 down

i'm unsure as how to get it back up again.

aoeping seems to work:

 # aoeping -v 0 0 eth1
tag: 80000000
eth: eth1
shelf: 0
slot: 0
config query response:
00 13 72 3f 42 35 00 13 72 3f 55 16 88 a2 18 00
00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 20 40 0a 78 10 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
found e0.0 with mac 0013723f5516


I've restarted the vblade daemon on the server, I've tried an
aoe-revalidate and a discover, but still it's showing down.

Any Ideas?

Thanks,
