On Vnxe, you cannot create a shared folder server or iSCSI server using 192.168.2.2 IP address

Failure phenomenon:

1, on the Vnxe, can not use 192.168.2.2 this IP address to create a shared folder server or iSCSI server;

2, the use of 192.168.2.2 this IP address to create a server failed, and reported "IP address has been used (error code: 0X600089C)" error message.

Solution:

192.168.2.2 This IP address is occupied by the data mover of the Vnxe two storage processor (SP). You can log in to the Vnxe command-line interface by putty using the service account. Then follow these steps:

Service@spa spa:~> Cat/nas/server/slot_2/ifconfig

El30 protocol=ip device=vnic-int local=128.221.255.2 netmask=255.255.255.0 broadcast=128.221.255.255 mtu=1500 vlan=0

El31 protocol=ip device=el31 local=192.168.2.2 netmask=255.255.255.0 broadcast=192.168.2.255 mtu=1500 vlan=0 mac= 44:41:52:54:0:6 <---

Rep30 protocol=ip device=vnic-int local=128.221.255.12 netmask=255.255.255.0 broadcast=128.221.255.255 mtu=1500 vlan= 0

SERVICE@SPB spb:~> Cat/nas/server/slot_3/ifconfig

El30 protocol=ip device=vnic-int local=128.221.255.3 netmask=255.255.255.0 broadcast=128.221.255.255 mtu=1500 vlan=0

El31 protocol=ip device=el31 local=192.168.2.2 netmask=255.255.255.0 broadcast=192.168.2.255 mtu=1500 vlan=0 mac= 44:41:52:54:0:6 <---

Rep30 protocol=ip device=vnic-int local=128.221.255.13 netmask=255.255.255.0 broadcast=128.221.255.255 mtu=1500 vlan= 0

Although this interface is configured as "Down", the IP address of 192.168.2.2 is still occupied by the El31 interface. Therefore, you cannot use an IP address, that is, you cannot assign this IP address to any interface on both sides of the SP.
