6.2.2.16.8. rescan-interfaces

6.2.2.16.8.1. Introduction

The rescan-interfaces command of the advanced-configuration subgroup enables:

  • scanning network interfaces

  • synchronising the detected network interfaces with the predefined names in the system.

This command is particularly useful if the interfaces are misnamed or out of order. This can happen in some cases with old or unrecognised material.


6.2.2.16.8.2. Prerequisites

  • User: setup

  • Dependencies: the detection engine must be switched off


6.2.2.16.8.3. Command

set advanced-configuration rescan-interfaces [no-reboot]


6.2.2.16.8.4. Example of scanning GCap interfaces without rebooting

Note

As the interfaces might be unassigned, access via the SSH connection might not work. Hence, only physical access or access via the management console (iDrac) is possible.

  • Enter the following command.

    (gcap-cli) set advanced-configuration rescan-interfaces no-reboot
    
  • Validate.

    Operation successful.
