Good day everyone,
I recently ran through the process of updating my ancient vmm host server from
7.2 all the way up to 7.7 (stepping through each version using sysupgrade).
Everything went extremely well, with the exception of one issue: previously
when I started a vmm guest, the tap interface (tap0, tap1, etc) automatically
added itself to the bridge (bridge0) so the guests could communicate on the
network, but now they no longer do. I have to manually add them using
ifconfig bridge0 add tap0
every time I start/restart a vmm guest.
Any thoughts on why that would be? Here's my vm.conf; not sure what else would
be in play here, so let me know if there are other configuration files I should
show.
vm.conf:
socket owner taborj:taborj
switch "bridge" {
interface bridge0
}
vm "athos" {
memory 10G
enable
disk /mnt/sd1a/vmware/athos.qcow2
disk /mnt/sd1a/vmware/athos_usr.qcow2
interface { switch "bridge" }
}
vm "porthos" {
memory 512M
enable
disk /mnt/sd1a/vmware/porthos.qcow2
disk /mnt/sd1a/vmware/porthos2.qcow2
interface { switch "bridge" }
}
Thanks,
