Description Dan Yocum 2015-10-27 18:34:55 UTC
Description of problem:

After deploying the undercloud on the director node, a KVM VM guest system with 2 NICs, and then rebooting the director node, the nics are renamed and the network does not come online. 



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

python-rdomanager-oscplugin-0.0.10-8.el7ost.noarch

How reproducible:
every

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEL7.1 on a KVM VM with virtio devices
2. Follow https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_OpenStack_Platform/7/html-single/Director_Installation_and_Usage and install Director
3. Deploy undercloud
4. reboot

Actual results:

No network

Expected results:

network!


Additional info:

The issue appears to be resolved *if* the HWADDR=aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff variable is added to the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX files.  This allows udev to determine the nic name and set it appropriately on system boot.

Comment 3 Mike Burns 2016-02-25 12:05:42 UTC
This should be resolved with the latest images using predictable names.

Comment 5 Dan Yasny 2016-03-02 15:43:48 UTC
Dan, can you please provide some details as to how the vNICs were set up? NAT or bridge or..?

I haven't managed to reproduce this yet, but that's probably because I always have HWADDR in my ifcfg scripts

Me too.  I wonder if this is a udev issue...?

Comment 7 Dan Yasny 2016-03-09 21:05:20 UTC
After 11 subsequent deployments and various configurations, using the default instack VM created by instack-virt-setup I haven't seen this issue even once. 

Setting to verified
