Fixed In Version: initscripts-9.49.30-1.el7_2.3
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: when a user edits an ifcfg-rh file to have NM_CONTROLLED=no, the expected behavior when calling ifup on the ifcfg-file is that NetworkManager stops managing the device. NetworkManager in default configuration does not automatically reload files from disk so a call to ifup must tell NetworkManager to reload the file. initscripts skipped reloading the file if it saw NM_CONTROLLED=no Consequence: after ifup of the file, NetworkManager would still manage the interface in parallel with initscripts. Fix: have initscripts always tell NetworkManager to reload the file. Result: a user can edit a file to have NM_CONTROLLED=no and on ifup, NetworkManager will stop managing the device.
