I have uploaded a fixed iprutils package for Ubuntu 14.04.  However, in
order for this to clear the SRU process, we will need a reproducible
test case.  Can someone explain how to configure disks from scratch to
test this issue?

** Description changed:

+ [SRU Justification]
+ Straightforward fix for a crasher bug that affects configurability of server 
hardware.
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ Minimal, as this is a narrowly targeted crasher fix.
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ TBD

  Ubuntu OS (14.04.3):

  Hi Mike,
  
  I have patch ready for the fix. I can put iprconfig prototype on your
  system. I got the following error when I tried to ssh into your system.
  
  Thanks,
  Wendy
