Verification done with netplan.io 0.40.1~18.04.1: I have verified that when using ip=dhcp / ip6=dhcp on the kernel cmdline to boot to a remote filesystem; initramfs's scripts correctly write "critical: true" in /run/netplan/<interface>.yaml, and that config is correctly interpreted by netplan as being entirely valid, and generates a configuration for systemd-networkd that avoids releasing IP from DHCP on 'netplan apply'.
In such an environment, running 'netplan apply' correctly leaves IP addresses coming from DHCP untouched. "CriticalConnection=true" is present in the generated config for networkd. ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic ** Tags added: verification-done-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769682 Title: NFS-based remote root hangs when running 'netplan apply' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/1769682/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
