Thanks Andy for the follow-up! I've installed python 3.4.3 (with is defaulting for python3) on Trusty. Running a test IP injection did work with the script from comment #6 and the netmask did change to the new value that was specified.
However, I don't see it in the interfaces config file. Is there another place where the netmask param is added? The stanza part in the interfaces file has only the address, gateway and nameserver entries. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1506521 Title: [Hyper-V] hv_set_ifconfig issues on Wily 15.10 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Trusty: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Wily: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Xenial: Fix Released Bug description: Hello, It seems that during the Wily development, some changes have occurred that broke the hv_set_ifconfig script. Please see the below details and update the script accordingly. From my understanding the changes in python versioning on 15.10 are causing this, and when running hv_set_ifconfig with Python v3, it will give some code errors.
