Description Satyajit Das 2023-01-22 21:19:46 UTC

Description of problem:

RHEL 9 provisioned via satellite, NetworkManager creates two network connections. "System ens192" and an extra unused "ens192"


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

Satellite version 6.12


How reproducible:

100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Deploy a Rhel-9 host from the satellite.
2. Host provisioned successfully, however, NetworkManager create two network connections. "System ens192" and an extra unused "ens192"

Actual results:

# nmcli con show
NAME          UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE 
System ens32  152beb06-47c5-c5e8-95a9-385590654382  ethernet  ens32  
ens32         8e747bfa-c416-4018-9718-3932492ce092  ethernet  --     

Expected results:

The name for the active interface should be ens32 and  NetworkManager should update the uuid with the correct name.

Comment 1 Leos Stejskal 2023-01-24 09:32:28 UTC

Hi,
I suggest to remove the BZ from the 6.13 scope, this issue is there for some time (from RHEL 7),
and implementing correct network configuration which is backwards compatible back to RHEL 6 is just not feasible in the 6.13 scope.
