Hi all,
New to this forum.
I have just been reading through a historical thread about some issues with IPMP.
Some tips from "Peasant" where very useful. Please see below
"Just couple of more hints regarding VM.
For VDS, use one VDS - one guest LDOM, don't put everything in primary-vds.
Disable extended-mappin-space everywhere since i noticed sometimes live migration fails with this on.
You might want to disable INTER-VNET-LINK (to off)
I had a situation when network between two guests, that reside same physical machine on the same subnet, just stops working.
I have ran some internal test with those two options on/off (which should improve network throughput), and didn't notice any
performance gains, only experienced issue above. Depends on which patchset you are, perhaps those issues are now fixed.
Regards
Peasant"
The issue I am having is that two Guest LDOMS which have IP addresses in h same subnet/range are unable to ping each other. They can ping all other LDOM Guets, control/ Service etc. but not each other.
Actually, before i switched off INTER-VNET-LINK=off then they would just crash.
We have two IO domains with aggregated ports using IPMP
Please let me know what info you require and I hope you can help. Some details below:

This has now been solved.
It was due to duplicate ldom mac address (vnet mac addresses). Needed to manually change those using ldm set-vnet mac-addr=
