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.

Fixed In Version: rhel-system-roles-1.0-6.el8
Doc Type: Rebase: Bug Fixes and Enhancements
Doc Text:
.RHEL System Roles updated The `rhel-system-roles` packages, which provide a configuration interface for RHEL subsystems, have been updated. Notable changes include: * Handling of absent profiles in the `network` role has been improved. When deleting an existing NetworkManager on-disk profile configuration by setting the persistent state to `absent`, only the persistent configuration for the profile is now removed, and the current runtime configuration remains unchanged. As a result, the corresponding network device is no longer brought down in the described situation. * Specifying a Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) size for VLAN and MACVLAN interfaces in the `network` role has been fixed. As a result, setting MTU size on VLAN and MACVLAN interfaces using the `network` role no longer fails with the following error message: [literal] ---- failure: created connection failed to normalize: nm-connection-error-quark: connection.type: property is missing (6) ---- * The `selinux` and `timesync` roles now include all their documented input variables in their defaults files (`defaults/main.yml`). This makes it easy to determine what input variables are supported by the roles by examining the content of their respective defaults files. * The `kdump` and `timesync` roles have been fixed to not fail in check mode. // references (BZ#1674004, BZ#1685904)

Description Pavel Cahyna 2019-03-06 09:25:36 UTC 
Description of problem:

The network system role has had several updates since the last release: 
- keeps the interface up for state: up if persistent_state is absent (PR#95)
- solves problems with defining VLAN and MACVLAN interface types (issue #19)
Comment 1 Till Maas 2019-03-08 14:56:41 UTC 
To match the changes for absent profiles as described in the description, the plan is also to adjust the role to handle state:down persistent_state:present properly. Also a bug with setting MTU in VLAN was found when fixing #19 which needs to be addressed as well.
Comment 3 Pavel Cahyna 2019-06-03 16:22:42 UTC 
tests: tests/tests_vlan_mtu_nm.yml, tests/tests_states.yml
