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.

Description of problem:
Ifconfig command is not supported on p2v client


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-p2v-1.32.5-1.el7.iso


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Boot the source machine into p2v client via iso
2.Input the ip and password of conversion server
3.At the input conversion info interface, there are many networks listed in network interfaces
4.Exit the p2v GUI interface and enter into p2v console mode, input the command#ifconfig to check network info of machine but p2v shows not support ifconfig command
#ifconfig
ifconfig:command not found

5.Try to use command #ip a list which told by rjones, the network info could be showed normally, pls refer to screenshot

Actual results:
As above description

Expected results:
Although command #ip a list could show network info at p2v console mode, it is known by little people.The command #ifconfig is usually used by most of people for checking network info. so it is better if p2v console mode could support ifconfig command

Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2016-06-03 10:29:22 UTC 
I have a trivial patch lined up in my queue for this (not posted).
Comment 3 zhoujunqin 2016-06-22 11:36:33 UTC 
I can reproduce this issue with build:
virt-p2v-1.32.4-3.el7.iso

Then try to verify this bug with new build:
virt-p2v-1.32.5-5.el7.iso

Steps:
1. Boot the source machine into p2v client via iso 
2. After virt-p2v client launched, press "Ctrl+Alt+F1[3,4,5,6]" switch to p2v console mode.
3. Input the command: ifconfig

# ifconfig

Since command ifconfig is added and it works well, move this bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
