Fixing a Network Connection

The everRun system software monitors and analyzes network connections. If it determines that an existing network connection is not optimal (for example if a 1Gb port is connected to a 10Gb port), and it cannot automatically reconfigure the network, it issues an alert stating that cabled network ports could not be paired automatically. In this case, perform the following procedure to reconfigure network connections so that they are optimal.

To reconfigure non-optimal network connections

1. Place the secondary PM into maintenance mode. See Maintenance Mode for details.
2. Open the Networks page in the everRun Availability Console.
3. Click the Fix Network button if it is active (the button is inactive if networks have no problems or no fixable problems). As the everRun system software reconfigures the networks, the connection topology displayed in the diagram on the Networks page will change to show the new optimal configuration.
4. Remove the secondary PM from maintenance mode. See Maintenance Mode for details.
