Description Amit Saha 2014-01-29 22:57:03 UTC 
Description of problem:


BZ#810893 added the support for running tests in an IPv6 only environment. However, it assumes that IPv4 is always available, which may not be the case if there is a recipe which has a task after the task which disables IPv6. Hence, in the absence of IPv4 the beah services which are started per task fails to start.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Beah 0.7.0

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:



Expected results:


Additional info:

This will also of course need the ability to first communicate with the task library correctly over IPv6, but we must fix this from Beah's side of things.

Verified that jobs still proceed when all IPv4 addresses are deleted (including 127.0.0.1) assuming that all the necessary hostnames are resolvable using either /etc/hosts or a DNS server reachable over IPv6.
