You may recall me posting this issue this late last year. I was never
able to resolve this problem and I kept thinking "next release, next
release" but sadly it was not to be. I'm on 1.4.3 now and it's still
here.
Here's the issue again: cobbler sync is timing out when I have bonded
interfaces. I have 9 systems, each has 1 bonded interface with a VLAN
interface on top of it, and then a second bonded interface, and all
but 3 have a third bonded interface. When I do a cobbler sync, after
5 minutes 22 seconds it times out with:
join() is too long for a Python string
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cobbler/cobbler.py", line 83, in main
rc = BootCLI().run(sys.argv)
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cobbler/cobbler.py", line 61, in run
return self.loader.run(args)
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cobbler/commands.py", line 122, in run
return fn.run()
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cobbler/modules/cli_misc.py",
line 186, in run
return self.api.sync(verbose=self.options.verbose)
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cobbler/api.py", line 523, in sync
return sync.run()
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cobbler/action_sync.py", line
128, in run
self.dhcp.write_dhcp_file()
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cobbler/modules/manage_isc.py",
line 262, in write_dhcp_file
self.templar.render(template_data, metadata, settings_file, None)
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cobbler/templar.py", line
134, in render
data_out = data_out.replace("@@%s@@" % str(x), str(search_table[str(x)]))
My workaround has been (and still is) to remove all the bond and VLAN
interfaces before the sync, then re-add them afterward. When I do
this, the sync is pretty quick.
At one point Michael had suggested turning off omapi -- but it is off,
and always has been. FYI I'm on RHEL 4.6.
Anyone have any ideas?
