Fixed In Version: ruby193-rubygem-staypuft-0.2.1.el6ost
Doc Type: Release Note
Doc Text:
In previous releases, users were advised to enter only lower-case NIC names during deployment to avoid any issues. This is no longer required, as all NIC names are now checked as lower-case. For example, 'Eth0' and 'ETH0' will both be evaluated as 'eth0'.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2014:1090 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform Enhancement Advisory 2014-08-22 15:28:08 UTC

Description Mike Burns 2014-07-29 15:44:49 UTC 
Description of problem:
We currently don't force all nic names to lower case.  This could cause future problems if a user enters ETH0 instead of eth0

At the moment, any issues are unconfirmed.
Comment 2 Mike Burns 2014-08-05 18:32:39 UTC 
Scott, can you add a quick tolower (or the ruby equivalent) on the nic fields?

Comment 5 Alexander Chuzhoy 2014-08-12 15:27:04 UTC 
Verified: rhel-osp-installer-0.1.9-1.el6ost.noarch


In the advanced configuration of the deployment, checking the Ovs tunnel iface - I see that it evaluates to the lower case of what I entered in upper case.
