Public bug reported: In Quantal kernel biosdevname feature is not working as it suppose to be. On hardware we are seeing an issue where few of the network interface names are named as rename7 etc.. while biosdevname -d utility provides the correct biosname while kernel name have been messed up. There are total 16 network interfaces on the server which are ALOMs for Emulex card connected to system.
It seems this issue is a race condition and will get fixed in Fedora 18. But having fix in Quantal will help also. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=782145 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Tags: quantal ** Attachment added: "Screenshotfrom2012-12-0615:20:56.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1090002/+attachment/3459206/+files/Screenshotfrom2012-12-0615%3A20%3A56.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1090002 Title: biosdevname gives name of device as rename7 in Quantal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1090002/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
