Hey guys,
I'm trying to setup two VEs, using ::edit:: Bridged ::/edit:: networking on VMWare server, to try out DRBD replication with MySQL. I've assigned the two VEs IPs within my local range:
ifcfg-eth0 on mysql-primary
Code:
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=192.168.1.129
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
ifcfg-eth0 on mysql-secondary
Code:
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=192.168.1.128
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
The two servers can ping one another, and I've got DRBD replicating between the two, however, I cannot ping any other hosts on my network; also DNS resolution is timing out even though I've configured /etc/resolve.conf with the proper name servers.
This would be fine since I'm only using these VEs for company training, however I need to grab the Linux HeartBeat packages from the CentOS repositories, and with no network connectivity I can't even manually copy over the RPMs.
Some things that might be helpful to know:
Even on the host machine (My laptop running Ubuntu) I'm unable to ping the two VEs. Anytime I try to ping an external IP from the VEs I get the following error:
Destination Host Unreachable.
Anyone have any documentation they can point me to in regards to troubleshooting these types of issues? I can wrap my head around any Systems Administration issue, but this is just killing me. I know I'm probably missing something elementary here, and if I am please feel free to point and laugh at me, at least I'll learn my lesson!
