Description of problem: OCP 4.7 Cluster deployment on bare metal hosts fails with timeout error if network bond is defined with mode 1. Cluster will only spin up if the mode is undefined, which defaults the bond to round-robin and does not engage the interface. When specifying mode 1 via MC (as stipulated by docs) The MC does deploy successfully to the master nodes, but the contents of bond0 are as follows: cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0 Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.7.1 (April 27, 2011) Bonding Mode: load balancing (round-robin) MII Status: up MII Polling Interval (ms): 100 Up Delay (ms): 0 Down Delay (ms): 0 Peer Notification Delay (ms): 0 Slave Interface: ens2f0 MII Status: up Speed: 25000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: <redacted> Slave queue ID: 0 Slave Interface: ens2f1 MII Status: up Speed: 25000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: <redacted> Slave queue ID: 0 network config for bond: [root@master-0 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0 DEVICE=bond0 TYPE=Bond NAME=bond0 BONDING_MASTER=yes BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes MTU=9100 IPV4_DHCP_TIMEOUT=2147483647 IPV6INIT=no DHCPV6C=no IPV6INIT=no IPV6_AUTOCONF=no IPV6_DEFROUTE=no IPV6_PEERDNS=no IPV6_PEERROUTES=no IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL=no BONDING_OPTS="mode=1 miimon=100" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.7.11/24 *tested on both releases issue occurs across both. How reproducible: every time [network is preconfigured for bond link] Steps to Reproduce: 1.install cluster - observe timeout if bond defined 2.install cluster with workaround failing to define bond mode, adjust via MC deployment when cluster is up/stable, observe no change in bond network interface even after node reboots Actual results: bond link is never activated as desired in mode 1, stays in round robin/disconnected Expected results: bond link should map as expected Additional info: case details linked to BZ for additional uploads/MG/SOS reports
