RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

ifcfg files

Description of problem:
If we bond the two Mellanox physical ports ("ib0" & "ib1") then we cannot bond any additional virtual IPoIB interfaces. Red Hat reboots result in a hang in this case. If we do NOT bond the physical ports, then there is no problem bonding any number of additional IPoIB interfaces.

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


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install ConnectX3 FRD Infiniband + 40GigE, P/N MCX354A-FCBT HBA in server
2. Configure bonding on both the default physical ib ports and on additional child interfaces with pkeys
3. Reboot the OS

Actual results:
Redhat hangs

Expected results:
Redhat reboots and all interfaces work

Additional info:
Attached are examples of working ifcfg files and failing files (with everything bonded).
