Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

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.

Describe the issue: 

Customer reported an error in the guidance and command-line example in section 5.10.1. 

The error is in the second paragraph and the following CLI example:

Current text:

To create a new team interface, with name team-ServerA, issue a command as follows:
~]$ nmcli connection add type team ifname team-ServerA
Connection 'team-ServerA' (b954c62f-5fdd-4339-97b0-40efac734c50) successfully added.


Correction requested: 

To create a new team interface, with name ServerA, issue a command as follows:
~]$ nmcli connection add type team ifname ServerA

Please also include mention that the interface type is prepended to the requested interface name. Thanks.

  Hi Stephen,

I need a little bit more detailed information:
1. Who is the customer?
2. Who is the contact person?
3. Is there a support case for this?
Thank you.

Kind regards,
Mirek

Contact is Fernanda Ames in RH Support.
Customer is: linxuhua
The support ticket (not sure if it's SFDC or something else) is 115430.

I've fixed the error in the command line and I've also corrected the paragraph before the mentioned command line [1]. I can't include the suggested "mention that the interface type is prepended to the requested interface name", because the interface type is not prepended to the interface "name", but to the interface "id" (see the command output in the bottom of the same section). In other words, as soon as I will be able to publish an async release of the Networking Guide on the Customer Portal, we should close this bug as "solved". Thanks lrintel for helping me.
