Description of problem: Running the KDUMP nfs test from the web UI on a SUT that has 2 NICs. After triggering the crash the machine reboots, but the web UI reports still that its waiting for a response. Checking rhcert-backend server status shows that the rcert-listerner is not running on port 8009. Doing an "rhcert-backend server start" solves the problem immediately. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-certification-hardware-4.1-20161019.el7.noarch How reproducible: On the machine with 2 NICs: always On a machine with just one NIC: never Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RHEL 7.3 & redhat-certification-4.1... on SUT 2. register the machine to the web UI 3. Perform kdump nfs test Actual results: Kdump gets triggered, machine crasehs and reboots and web UI is waiting for a response. Expected results: Machine should reboot and then the test should proceed, meaing the web UI gets connected again to the SUT. Additional info: I wanted to try out if this is depending on the NIC that I use when registering the system. My machine has 2 IP adresses: 192.168.2.138 and 192.168.2.168. I tried the second one (.168) and the first attempt to register didn't produce any entry in the list on the web UI. On the second attempt I got my machine listed, but with the first address (.138). I guess that this surprise is triggered by the different metric values that I see when looking at the ip routes: default via 192.168.2.1 dev enp0s25 proto static metric 100 default via 192.168.2.1 dev enp4s0 proto static metric 101 192.168.2.0/24 dev enp0s25 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.138 metric 100 192.168.2.0/24 dev enp4s0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.168 metric 101 192.168.122.0/24 dev virbr0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.122.1 A workaround for this problem is to do a "rhcert-backend server start" so that the rhcert-listerner gets started manually.
Problem occurs also in RHCert 4.2. Seems to happen every time the SUT has more than one NIC.
