I think the previous test was as valid but to be completely sure I added an additional interface to a VM, installed ifupdown and assigned the additional interface to ifupdown control. Using 0.12.8~17.10.1 the error was observable and the status of the interface was incorrect. Upgrading to 0.12.9~17.10.1, ifup and ifdown worked correctly.

Since this is a very common use case, SRU is needed. [Test Case] * Detailed process can be seen at https://paste.ubuntu.com/26169937/ [Regression Potential] * Potential for regression is low because of the nature of the error. It's just missing a case stanza for interfaces that are defined with IP/mask [Other Info] * Original report: I'm seeing this error as the status of multiple containers in my deploy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26166720/ I can't connect to the parent machines anymore either - it seems networking is totally hosed on the machines. This is with juju 2.3.1. [SRU Justification] == Impact == Due to unexpectedly passing up a non-critical error to the ifup hooks, this causes network interfaces to not come up. == Fix == This was fixed in Xenial (and already forward ported to Bionic) effectively allowing to bring up network interfaces via ifupdown after installing ubuntu-fan. == Testcase == Basic installation with ifupdown method for configuring network interfaces (no longer default for Artful and later). Then installing ubuntu-fan and either reboot or use ifdown -a && ifup -a in case of being logged in locally. Without the fix interfaces will not come up properly. == Regression Risk == Minimal, well tested in Xenial and not impacting Artful and later if ifupdown is not used.
