Hi Flavio, Can you show me your config file and the environment you use?

Sure, I have two configs currently working:

# cat team0-activebackup.cfg { "device": "team0", "hwaddr": "00:1C:C0:A3:7F:16", "runner": { "name": "activebackup" }, "link_watch": { "name": "ethtool" }, "ports": { "em1": { "prio": 100 }, "p11p1": { "prio": 100 } } } # cat team0-lacp.cfg { "device": "team0", "hwaddr": "00:1C:C0:A3:7F:16", "runner": { "name": "lacp", "active": 1, "fast_rate": 1, "tx_hash": ["eth", "ipv4", "ipv6"] }, "link_watch": { "name": "ethtool" }, "ports": { "em1": { "prio": 100 }, "p11p1": { "prio": 100 } } }

# uname -r 3.4.0-01622-g31a6710

# lsmod | grep team team_mode_loadbalance 1819 1 team_mode_activebackup 1690 0 team 18475 2 team_mode_loadbalance,team_mode_activebackup

I am confused about how to test the libteam, and I hope you can give me some advice. We plain to use libteam instead of bonding, and before that we need do some tests.

Certainly. I am testing 'teamd' here as well, so I appreciate any feedback you can give to us.

thanks, fbl

Thanks, Best Wishes.

Hi Flavio, Thanks for your help. I have build the latest net-next kernel and try again. There is still some problem, and I will try some other method to fix it.

I did those steps yesterday using net-next and I am now running active-backup on two different machines.

I had to clean the 'configure' caches from libnl and libteam as well in order to get updated binaries.

Hi all, When I try to test the libteam as Example in https://fedorahosted.org/libteam/wiki/InfrastructureSpecification, I got errors as blew: Failed to create team device. teamd_init() failed. Failed to start daemon: Operation not supported

The command is :teamd -f teamd2.conf  -D The conf is : {         "device": "team0",         "runner": {                 "name": "lacp",                 "active": 1,                 "fast_rate": 1         },         "link_watch": {"name": "ethtool"},         "ports": {"eth1": {}, "eth2": {}} }

So, is there something wrong with my commands or conf file? Thanks for your help.

You didn't tell what kernel you are using. You need to have a kernel with libteam driver enabled.

After booting with that kernel, compile libnl, install it. Next compile libteam and install it.

That fixed the same issue here. fbl
