4.2.1 Setting Up the /etc/opt/FJSVla/config File
This section explains how to create and modify the /etc/opt/FJSVla/config file to use the
LinkAggregation feature. All LinkAggregation groups defined in the file will be
automatically activated during the system boot. In this case, it is not necessary to run
/etc/opt/FJSVla/bin/fjla command manually.
1) Create the /etc/opt/FJSVla/config file:
The /etc/opt/FJSVla/config.sample file is provided by the FJSVla package. Copy the sample
file to create the config file.
# cp /etc/opt/FJSVla/config.sample /etc/opt/FJSVla/config
2) Modifying the /etc/opt/FJSVla/config file:
The following parameters must be specified in the /etc/opt/FJSVla/config file to use the
LinkAggregation feature.
aggregator-interface
Specify the physical interface that represents the LinkAggregation group. The froup is
a unit that performs data distribution and aggregation and also provides redundancy.
member-instance
Specify the interfaces that belong to the LinkAggregation group by instance number (except
aggregator-interface). The valid number of members is 1 to 7. Multiple members can be
specified by separating them with ":".
distribution mode

LinkAggregation Feature”for detailed information about each distribution mode. Specify
any one of the following values:
