Title:
qeth: utilize virtual MAC for Layer2 OSD devices
Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:
Incomplete
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
---Problem Description---
qeth on a DPM-managed IBM Z machine does not obtain its MAC Address for L2
OSD interfaces from the OSA Network Adapter. Instead it uses a random MAC
Address.
This causes connectivity issues in setups where a reliable & pre-determined
MAC Address is required - ie. when doing network configuration via DHCP.
---uname output---
Ubuntu 18.04 / vmlinuz-4.15.0-101-generic
Machine Type = IBM z14 GA2
---Debugger---
A debugger is not configured
---Steps to Reproduce---
- Bring up a qeth L2 OSD interface in DPM-managed LPAR.
- Inspect the interface's MAC Address. It should be the same as displayed in
the DPM Panels.
Stack trace output:
no
Oops output:
no
System Dump Info:
The system is not configured to capture a system dump.
-Attach sysctl -a output output to the bug.
