I rebooted a oneiric server today that I had not booted since December. Bond interface gets created but the ethernet interfaces wont bind. it sits there saying that it is waiting for a slave to bind for 60 seconds and continues. The bonding module gets loaded, the interface is configured, just the slave interfaces don't get bound. A manual ifenslave command binds the slaves without complaint. A work around is to add a manual:
up /sbin/ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1 down /sbin/ifenslave -d bond0 eth0 eth1 I never needed to do that in the past, ifupdown just always did the right thing. So it still hangs for a minute waiting for slaves to bind but now the explicit ifenslave command finishes the job after that waiting period expires. Nothing changed in this server configuration since December. We were moving it so we had to reboot it and it wouldn't come up on the network. All of our servers use bonding ( balance-xor mode) to a pair of stacked switches with the two ports in a static LAG ( Cisco PortChannel or Brocade trunk ). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/924513 Title: network with bonding does not start on ubuntu with separate /var partition To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/upstart/+bug/924513/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
