** Description changed: + === Begin SRU Information === + [Impact] + When using iscsi-root, /etc/init/iscsi-network-interface stops + the network device providing the iscsi target network link from + being brought down. This works fine. + + The problem is when resolvconf is in use, the dhcp search and + nameserver settings that were obtained from the initramfs's + dhcp client are never populated into resolvconf. + + The result is that users have to find som other way to populate + /etc/resolv.conf if they're using iscsi root and want entries from dhcp + to be surfaced. + + We would like this fixed in precise so that the maas "ephemeral boot images" + no longer have to have a specially patched open-iscsi inside them. + Previously, these images include PPA debs for open-iscsi and some other + packages. + + The fix here is the same fix that is applied in quantal and forward in + ubuntu packaging. It simply makes /etc/init/iscsi-network-interface + replays data from the initramfs's dhcp request to resolvconf. + + [Test Case] + Boot an iscsi root system with resolvconf installed + /etc/resolv.conf will be empty (or at least not populated by the responses + from the initramfs's dhcp client) + + [Regression Potential] + There is a potential for regression here if the user is otherwise + modifying /etc/resolv.conf and has resolvconf installed. + + any regression would almost certainly be limited to settings in + /etc/resolv.conf + + [Other Info] + The maas "ephemeral images" have been using this patch for several + months, and the changes are the same as applied in quantal. + === End SRU Information === + + on iscsi root /etc/init/iscsi-network-interface.conf stops the interface upon which the root device is made available from bouncing during normal boot. As a result, though, then resolvconf doesn't get updated for this interface. We need to have /etc/init/iscsi-network-interface.conf invoke resolvconf from the information in /run/net-<device>.conf ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: open-iscsi 2.0.873-3ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: User Name 3.5.0-13.14-generic 3.5.3 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-13-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.5.1-0ubuntu7 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu Sep 13 15:32:42 2012 Ec2AMI: ami-00000148 Ec2AMIManifest: FIXME Ec2AvailabilityZone: nova Ec2InstanceType: m1.small Ec2Kernel: unavailable Ec2Ramdisk: unavailable ProcEnviron: - TERM=screen - PATH=(custom, no user) - LANG=en_US.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + TERM=screen + PATH=(custom, no user) + LANG=en_US.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: open-iscsi UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
