I have below two queries, please suggest.
1) I have 2 IP's in my server and want to remove 1 of the ip, so which are the files i need to modify as of my knowledge we need to modify (1) /etc/hosts remove the unwanted ip
(2) /etc/hostname.interface_name
Please suggest if any thing more i need to modify.
2) when i run "ifconfig -a" on the global server it shows x no of interfaces and vertual interfaces, how to identify which is the global server ip or interface.
To stop Solaris configuring the interface at boot time remove the file /etc/hostname.<interface>
/etc/hosts is purely a "lookup" table. It is used to lookup the ip address of the hostname it finds in /etc/hostname.<interface> Nothing more than that.
To see what interfaces are being used by global and/or zones use the zoneadm command.
Remember that an ip interface can be shared between global and zone OR used exclusively by a zone.
My second question i still have a confusion, i mean i have a global server and it contains 4 zones, i want to find out what is the ip address assigned to global server or what interface it is using. Thanks in Advance.
