This document details the fault tolerant setup of the IBM Netfinity 10/100 Ethernet adapter (Intel chipset) under Microsoft Windows NT. While it is possible to install the IBM Network Interface Cards (NICs) as part of the regular operating system install, this document assumes that the operating system is already installed and up and running. This was done to keep the procedure as simple as possible.

The install will require one diskette and one program. The diskette is a common driver diskette that includes the drivers for Microsoft Windows NT. The program is zipped and contains the PROset software that sets up the teaming and load balancing.

Setting up the fault tolerant group

  1. With the system powered off, install the NICs. Try to install the adapters in the same type of slot, i.e. both 64-bit, both hot swap, etc.
  2. Power up the system and boot up to the operating system. Windows NT 4 does not detect NICs after the initial install.
  3. Right-click Network Neighborhood and select Properties.
  4. Select the Adapters tab of Network Properties and select the Add button. The Add Network Adapter dialog box opens.
  5. Place the driver diskette in the diskette drive and select Have Disk. After scanning the diskette the "Select OEM Option" box opens. The IBM Netfinity 10/100 Ethernet adapter driver should already be highlighted. Click OK to load the driver. The Network Properties will now display the NICs.

  6. Remove the driver diskette.
  7. Unzip the PROset files, then open or browse the folder that you unzipped the PROset software.
  8. In the PROset folder, open the SETUP subdirectory and locate and execute SETUP.EXE. A dialog box will open explaining that you are about to install the PROset Software. Click Yes to continue. After the install completes, you will be prompted to reboot the system.

  9. On reboot, you should see a small icon on the Taskbar for the Intel PROset utility. You can access the PROset utility by double clicking that icon, opening the PROset icon in the control panel, or by opening the adapter properties in Network Neighborhood. Use one of these options to open the PROset utility.

  10. To create a Fault-Tolerant pair, right-click one of the adapters in the list and a context menu will pop up. Select Add to Team, then select Create New Team.

  11. A Teaming Wizard dialog box opens. Select the type of team you wish to create. For the sake of simplicity, select Adapter Fault Tolerance, then select Next.

  12. The Teaming Wizard then displays the adapters that are available for teaming. The first NIC is selected by default.

  13. Select the second NIC for the pair and click Next.

  14. The group has been created. The Teaming Wizard displays the team number and mode and displays the adapters belonging to the team. Click Finish to continue.

  15. PROset now displays the team that was just created under Network Components. Each of the tabs displayed will allow you to adjust or view settings on the adapters in the team. The "General" tab displays the MAC address, IP address and driver status. It also has simulated LEDs to show network status. Finally, there is an Identify Adapter button that allows you to blink the physical LEDs on the adapters to aid in locating a particular adapter.

  16. The "Advanced" tab displays the driver values that can be adjusted on the adapter.

  17. The "Network Driver" tab displays driver Information such as name, version, and traffic statistics.

  18. The "Diagnostics" tab allows you to run single pass or loop tests on the adapter. The loopback test requires a loopback connector to work.

  19. The "Boot Agent" tab displays the settings for booting the system from the network.
  20. Close PROset, then right-click Network Neighborhood and select properties. A list of network connections is displayed. There is a new connection listed for the fault-tolerant pair that was just created. It is labeled as an Intel Advanced Network Services Virtual Adapter. Right-click the virtual adapter to set network settings.

  21. Setup is complete. Click OK to close the TCP/IP Properties window.

Testing the fault tolerant group

  1. To test the Fault Tolerant Group, open up the Windows NT system event viewer, and then unplug the cable going to the Primary adapter. You may have to refresh event viewer to see the error. The first error is an Event 11, adapter link down.

  2. Next, Event 4, adapter link down.

  3. Next error, Event 22, adapter does not sense any probes. The system sees there is a problem with the primary NIC, so it initializes the secondary adapter.

    event 22

  4. Next, Event 10, primary adapter is switching over to the secondary adapter.

    event 10

  5. Next, Event 21 and 5, secondary adapter is now active.

    event 21

    event 5

  6. Now plug the cable back into the primary adapter. This results in Event 14, adapter rejoins the team. The primary adapter detects network connectivity.

    event 14

  7. Next, Event 18, primary adapter is re-activated.

    event 18

  8. Next, Event 10, secondary adapter hands over to the primary.

    event 10

  9. Finally, Event 20, adapter #1 switches back to the preferred primary.

    event 20

  10. The Adapter Fault Tolerance test is complete. Click Close to exit the Event Detail window.
