Public bug reported: we have a bad interaction between initramfs-tools and open-iscsi, resulting in the boot interface not being configured.
when the iscsi has a static address, the script `local-top/iscsi` from open-iscsi creates a /run/net-$DEVICE.conf file for the iscsi interface. The existence of this file makes configure_networking() skip configuring the BOOTIF later due to this code in `scripts/functions`: for x in /run/net-"${DEVICE}".conf /run/net-*.conf ; do if [ -e "$x" ]; then IP=done break fi done ** Affects: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: open-iscsi (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: open-iscsi (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2056187 Title: fails to configure BOOTIF when using iscsi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/2056187/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
