Folks,
I appreciate your time and bandwidth because I need some help with an AIX error while setting the PMTU value for an interface.I am trying to set the MTU size on an Ethernet interface in an IBM JS20 blade running AIX 5.2 ML07. Using either SMIT or CLI returns the same error as pasted below. The interface is “en3” and the size limits are 60 to 9000 according to the documentation. Naturally, I’ve searched the IBM p5 and AIX web site for any clues. It doesn’t even recognize these error codes. BTW, this works fine on a system in another lab, just not on mine and we’re supposedly running the same image.
Method error (/usr/lib/methods/chgif):
0514-068 Cause not known.
0821-532 ioctl (SIOCSIFMTU): A return value of a math subroutine is not within machine precision.
0821-002 cfgif: Getting records from CuDv.
0821-007 cfgif: ifconfig command failed.
The status of"en3" Interface in the current running system is uncertain.
0821-223 chgif: Cannot get records from CuAt.
0821-532 ioctl (SIOCSIFMTU): A return value of a math subroutine is not within machine precision.
0821-223 chgif: Cannot get records from CuAt.
0821-229 chgif: ifconfig command failed.
The status of"en3" Interface in the current running system is uncertain.
