Upon installing 12C Grid Infrastructure on Solaris 5.10 the following problem was encountered during the pre installation checks.

Solaris IPMP group fail-over consistency check - This is a check to verify the current selection of public and private network classifications is consistent with network interfaces in fail-over dependency of an IPMP group Error: PRVG-1545 : Some of the IPMP group interfaces are not classified as private or public network interfaces on nodes "oradbaud04,oradbaud03,oradbaud02" - Cause: Found an additional fail-over dependency on an interface in an IPMP group which is not classified as a public or private interconnect interfaces on the identified nodes. - Action: Ensure that all the IPMP group interfaces are classified as public or private interconnect interfaces on the identified nodes. Use command 'oifcfg setif {-node <nodename> | -global} {<if_name>/<subnet>:public/cluster_interconnect}' to classify the network interface as public or private interconnect interface. |
Looking at our interface setup all seems ok. We have an active/passive IPMP group setup for our public interfaces to cater for failover. Confirmed with my trusty Unix admin that the setup was all good.
