Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, when starting a configured but non-active VDSM device, for example if a device was manually set to down, the VDSM service executed the 'service network start' command instead of the 'service network restart' command. If the device was also running DHCP, the dhclient was started twice and led to VDSM service start failure. With this update, 'service network restart' is actually run so if DHCP was running on the device, the dhclient it not started a second time, and the VDSM service starts as normal.

Hi Petr,
     Thanks for providing the draft doc text. Could you explain a bit more the following text: 'it finds difference between `service network status` Active and Configured devices..'
so I guess I still don't understand why service network start is run instead in the background.

Kind regards,
Julie

Haven't heard back from the need_info request. Therefore updating the doc text to my understanding.

Cheers,
Julie
