How do I change my DR appliance to use 10 Gbps ports instead of 1 Gbps? (4038919)

SSH to the DR as administrator and run this command to set bond0 as your 10G NICs:

network --factory_reset –auto_bonding_speed 10G

That command will not reset the IP address, it will only move the 10 Gbps ports into bond0 and remove the 1 Gbps ports.

If the NIC ports use SFP connectors, you will need a 10 Gbps switch that utilizes the SFP connectors. There are twinax as well as optical. Twinax is a copper cable with a transceiver on each end, usually the cable is built on the transceiver. The optical is just a fibre cable that plugs in to a transceiver on each end. The transceivers then plug into the 10 Gbps ports on the DR and the switch. There are also 10 Gbps nics available that use the RJ45 connector so it depends on which NIC cards are installed in the DR appliance.
