Description of problem:
I could test this in 2 environments.
In my latest reproducer, controller and ceph role nodes have the same hardware "Supermicro 1029u".
Although, leapp upgrade logs indicate that only controller node's initramfs was built with network link file as expected by persistentnetnamesconfig:
Oct 20 10:02:12 localhost dracut[32160]: Executing: /usr/bin/dracut --install ""/etc/systemd/network/10-leapp-enp175s0f0.link /etc/systemd/network/10-leapp-enp175s0f1.link /etc/systemd/network/10-leapp-enp216s0f0.link /etc/systemd/network/10-leapp-enp216s0f1.link"" -f --kver 4.18.0-193.28.1.el8_2.x86_64
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tripleo-ansible-0.5.1-1.20200914163925.el8ost.noarch
openstack-tripleo-heat-templates-11.3.2-1.20200914170156.el8ost.noarch
RHOS-16.1-RHEL-8-20201007.n.0
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select a hardware that has different nic names in RHEL7 and RHEL8.
2. Deploy this hardware with ceph via director on osp13.
3. Perform FFU/Upgrades.
Actual results:
persistentnetnamesconfig does not create /etc/systemd/network/10-leapp-* files.
The following command fails at the following task:
openstack overcloud upgrade run --stack overcloud --limit ceph-0
..
TASK [tripleo-network-config : Ensure network service is enabled] **************

fatal: [ceph-0]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Unable to start service network: Job for network.service failed because the control process exited with error code.\nSee \"systemctl status network.service\" and \"journalctl -xe\" for details.\n"}
Expected results:
/etc/systemd/network/10-leapp-* files are created and after leapp reboot, the nic names retain.
Additional info:
If I manually create /etc/systemd/network/ directory and create corresponding files before leapp upgrade, then these files are included in the initramfs and the issue is not seen.
