Please try to reproduce this on RHEL. You will need to enable RHEL extras to retrieve cockpit. Since this issue is move to cockpit part, I would like to wait cockpit guys to debug this issue. Wei, does this mean a bond can not be enabled and be saved? (In reply to Fabian Deutsch from comment #4) > Wei, does this mean a bond can not be enabled and be saved? yes, the enable button for bond can not be clicked. Please also state the version of NetworkManager. > After step5, miss save button to save the changes in "General" field.
There is no need to explicitly save this setting. It will be saved as soon as you change it.
> yes, the enable button for bond can not be clicked.
Confirmed.
What I can observe:
- Switching off a bond will also switch off all slaves.
- Switching on a bond whose slaves are all off will do nothing. (This is the bug.)
- Switching off all slaves of a bond will keep the bond on.
- Switching on a slave of a bond that is off will switch on the bond as well.
Using nmcli to activate a bond connection whose slaves are all off does successfully activate the bond. One needs to also explicitly switch on the slaves, however. This is what should happen with Cockpit also and I'll fix that.
Whether or not activating a bond connection should connect the slaves a well... This looks like something that NetworkManager should decide and take care off. We want this to be consistent between Cockpit and nmcli, for example, and I'll make sure that Cockpit matches nmcli. If you are unhappy with the behavior of nmcli, please file a bug against NetworkManager.
(I have observed different behavior on different OSes at different times and can't figure out the pattern. That's why I kept all the individual slave on/off buttons in the UI. They seem to be necessary since NetworkManager does not seem to manage the slaves well enough. I guess we need to revisit that also.)
https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4640 Turns out the on/off switch was erroneously disabled, but this wasn't reflected in its looks. So, two bugs: - the on/off switch should not be disabled for inactive bonds. - the on/off switch should actually _look_ disabled when it _is_ disabled. Both are fixed in the linked pull request. This bug will be fixed in cockpit 0.113 https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4640 Reassigning to Dominik for inclusion in next RHEL release of Cockpit.
