Hi all I upgraded ifenslave and ifupdown to 2.4ubuntu1.2 and 0.7.47.2ubuntu4.3 respectively. After reboot, the bonding did not come up correctly; mtu were set wrongly (default to 1500), default gateway was not set, nameserver information were not set in /etc/resolv.conf
After downgrading ifupdown to 0.7.47.2ubuntu4 and rebooted the server, everything came up fine again. root@rcstodc1r24-01-ac:/etc/network# apt-cache policy ifenslave ifenslave: Installed: 2.4ubuntu1.2 Candidate: 2.4ubuntu1.2 root@rcstodc1r24-01-ac:/etc/network# apt-cache policy ifupdown ifupdown: Installed: 0.7.47.2ubuntu4 Candidate: 0.7.47.2ubuntu4.3 root@rcstodc1r24-01-ac:/etc/network# uname -a Linux rcstodc1r24-01-ac 3.13.0-45-generic #74-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 13 19:36:28 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux root@rcstodc1r24-01-ac:/etc/network# cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS" /etc/network/interface <snip> auto p5p1 iface p5p1 inet manual mtu 9000 auto p5p2 iface p5p2 inet manual mtu 9000 auto p5p1.104 iface p5p1.104 inet manual bond-master bond104 bond-primary p5p1.104 mtu 9000 auto p5p2.104 iface p5p2.104 inet manual bond-master bond104 mtu 9000 auto bond104 iface bond104 inet static address X.X.X.X netmask 255.255.248.0 network X.X.X.X broadcast X.X.X.X gateway X.X.X.X dns-nameservers X.X.X.X dns-search erc.monash.edu.au bond-miimon 100 bond-mode 1 mtu 9000 bond-primary p5p1.104 bond-slaves none Since the server is in storage cluster server pool and could not hold on to it for long.
