Hi, Fraid this is a bit of a non-summary. We haven't been able to identify the cause however since we now have to proxy all our ftp traffic and the box will talk to the proxy ok we're not going to look any further. Joe ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- Here's the detail. HP DL380-G6 running Sol10_x64-u8 141445-09. Global zone uses two NICs (bnx) with link-based IPMP. In normal working bnx0 does all the work, bnx1 is just plugged into a switch, no IPs configured. There are 4 child zones, all identical built using a cloned ZFS snapshot of the original. Each zone's IP is an alias on top of bnx0. 3 out of 4 zones work fine. The problem zone does most things ok. However ftp tries to use bnx1. No idea why. We had another issue on this same chassis with another zone whereby Xwindows traffic wouldn't display on a remote system. Never did identify why but it may have been the same issue. In the end I wiped that zone and rebuilt using the original snapshot. All other network functions on the problem zone seem fine (ssh, nfs, http, X). I don't want to wipe this zone if I can avoid it as we now have a significant amount of application dev data on there. I can find no reference in the zone configs to suggest why the problem zone should change its mind about which NIC to use. There is nothing in the system logs on the global zone to indicate any issues on any of the network cards. BNX drivers are latest and greatest. Box firmware is up to date. Routing, DNS, subnetting etc are identical on all zones. Arp shows all machines using the same MAC address indicating bnx0. Any ideas anyone?
