Hello, After an upgrade from 10.04 to 12.04, our interfaces files stopped working for the 802.3ad interfaces. After converting the interfaces file to the new "format", the configuration seems to be correct, but I seem to be running into a timing issue or race condition again. I implemented most hints on this page, and the ones on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifenslave-2.6/+bug/1015199 , but if the system starts up, the bond interfaces don't get their slaves (I've seen them come up with 0, 1 or 2 slave interfaces). I'm trying to create bond1 and bond0, both with 2 physical interfaces. As suggested, the phyiscal interfaces are at the top, the bonds itself are defined at the bottom of the file.
It's a Dell PowerEdge R610, configured with 12 network interfaces, 4x broadcom bnx2 onboard, 2x4x igb Intel on quad nic boards. The used physical interfaces (eth0 through eth3) are mapped to the first 2 interfaces on both of the quad boards. I've tried playing with the pre- up sleep option as mentioned on comment 33 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifenslave-2.6/+bug/889423/comments/33), but to no avail. Could it be another timing issue, maybe due to the large amount of physical interfaces? If I run an "ifdown -a; ifup -a" from rc.local, all the interfaces come up just fine. The machine isn't in production yet, so I might be able to test or provide more logging if necessary. auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual bond-master bond1 auto eth2 iface eth2 inet manual bond-master bond1 auto eth1 iface eth1 inet manual bond-master bond0 auto eth3 iface eth3 inet manual bond-master bond0 auto bond0 iface bond0 inet static address REDACTED netmask 255.255.255.224 bond_mode 802.3ad # LACP bond_miimon 100 bond_lacp_rate 1 #xmit_hash_policy layer2+3 bond_slaves none iface bond0 inet6 static address REDACTED netmask 64 #gateway REDACTED auto bond1 iface bond1 inet static address REDACTED netmask 255.255.255.248 gateway REDACTED bond_mode 802.3ad # LACP bond_miimon 100 bond_lacp_rate 1 #xmit_hash_policy layer2+3 bond_slaves none iface bond1 inet6 static address REDACTED netmask 64 gateway REDACTED -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bridge-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/889423 Title: 802.3ad bonding not configured correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bridge-utils/+bug/889423/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
