Hi, Considering that NetworkManager is much mature these days (F20, RHEL7 ON...), is there a benefit of running it on *server environments*? In such environments:
- the server is not going to be changing connections constantly... - NM won't be receiving D-BUS signals from other apps that much or at all... - you'll get the benefit of running one less daemon if you disable it... To put it another way, what might I be missing if I disable NM on a typical server environment? Also, just to make sure. Would you consider this the proper way to disable/remove NM in favor of the legacy service? #1. Remove NM systemctl stop NetworkManager systemctl disable NetworkManager yum remove NetworkManager #2. Config file Edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/icfg-* and add: NM_CONTROLLED=no HWADDR=<your-NIC-MAC> (if it's not already there) p.d. even though NM is removed, I still put NM_CONTROLLED just in case it gets installed in a future time. #3. Assign gateway Edit /etc/sysconfig/network #4. DNS Make sure correct entries are in /etc/resolv.conf #5. Enable Legacy Network systemctl enable network systemctl start network Thanks!
