Hi guys,
I have actually seen this happen on a specific poster/cloud provider.
What that provider does is actually overwrite the settings from the hypervisor
side.
That is very interesting. I wonder if you know what hypervisor is in
use there, and perhaps it also applies to Brian's situation.
Every time I reboot such a machine, I need to login to the console to restart
the network script to properly set the default gateway.
Yikes. I cannot imagine inflicting that type of pain on a user. In
my opinion, any system that a provider issues a customer should "just
work" and should not require that type of manual intervention. If our
BlueOnyx VPS or dedicated hardware customers were unable to reliably
reboot without having to resort to manually repairing the network
configuration each time, I can only imagine the unhappy customers we
would be dealing with.
If the hypervisor can be narrowed down and is found to be the same on
both Taco and Brian's case, then perhaps it will be possible to disable
whatever process is taking place to overwrite the network configuration
on the VPS. Or an alternate hypervisor may be used that does not
include that behavior.
