I ran into an odd problem this week where CIFS would not let me delete a share and would not terminate. Eventually it got to the point where I just failed over to resolve the issue (which worked) but when the 2nd controller came back up I saw this in the logs:

Tue Apr 13 23:53:26 EDT [gvr-pvif.setMediaFail: vif: unable to set media type on link e2a for tgif (error 22)
Tue Apr 13 23:53:26 EDT [gvr-pvif.setMediaFail: vif: unable to set media type on link e2a for tgif (error 22)
Tue Apr 13 23:53:26 EDT [gvr-pvif.setMediaFail: vif: unable to set media type on link e2b for tgif (error 22)
Tue Apr 13 23:53:26 EDT [gvr-net.ifconfig.mediatype: The mediatype specified for tgif in the /etc/rc file is not valid for this interface and will be ignored.
Tue Apr 13 23:53:28 EDT [gvr-netif.linkUp: Ethernet e2a: Link up.
Tue Apr 13 23:53:28 EDT [gvr-netif.linkUp: Ethernet e2b: Link up.
Tue Apr 13 23:53:28 EDT [gvr-pvif.switchLink: tgif: switching to e2a

 

Here is my rc file, am I missing something? tgif is a Ten Gig InterFace, should I not have a mediatype specified? We do not have TOE enabled and that is the only reference I could find so I stuck with auto:

vif create multi lan0 -b ip e0a e0c

vif create multi tgif e2b e2a

ifconfig lan0 `hostname`-lan0 netmask 255.255.255.0 mediatype auto mtusize 1500 partner lan0 nfo

route add default 10.28.17.1 1

ifconfig tgif `hostname`-tgif netmask 255.255.0.0 mediatype auto mtusize 9000 partner tgif nfo -wins
