So the LLT is configured on 3 links running on the port 0, 7 and 31.

Add a link to LLT

[root@vcs1 /]# lltconfig -t eth2 -d eth2
LLT lltconfig INFO V-14-2-15653 No link type is specified, defaulting to link type "ether"
[root@vcs1 /]# lltconfig -a list
Link 0 (eth0):
  Node   0 vcs1       :   00:0C:29:DE:BA:35  permanent
  Node   1 vcs2       :   00:0C:29:52:9B:FB

Link 1 (eth1):
  Node   0 vcs1       :   00:0C:29:DE:BA:3F  permanent

[root@vcs1 /]#

Removing a link from LLT

[root@vcs1 /]# lltconfig -u eth2----------> Command to remove a link from LLT Layer. (Need to execute the command on both the nodes)

[root@vcs2 /]# lltconfig -u eth2

This command unconfigures the LLT link, but does not permanently remove the link from configuration files.

Upon reboot, or restart of LLT, the cluster node will use the link again.

To remove the link permanently from the configuration, on each cluster node modify the /etc/llttab file and remove the line for device "eth2".

[root@vcs1 /]# lltconfig -a list
Link 0 (eth0):
  Node   0 vcs1       :   00:0C:29:DE:BA:35  permanent
  Node   1 vcs2       :   00:0C:29:52:9B:FB

Link 1 (eth1):
  Node   0 vcs1       :   00:0C:29:DE:BA:3F  permanent
  Node   1 vcs2       :   00:0C:29:52:9B:05
