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.

Description Eric Multanen 2012-05-22 23:04:35 UTC
Description of problem:
The anaconda script for fcoe will start lldpad and then invoke a couple dcbtool commands to enable DCB and enable the FCoE application TLV for the selected interface.

The dcbtool commands may fail depending on timing of the commands and whether or not the link is up or down.  If the application TLV is not enabled, the results can be indeterminate.  Sometimes the installation may complete fine, in other cases, an important feature like priority flow control (PFC) may not be enabled by the switch and the resultant FCoE traffic needed for installation is not able to complete due to too many dropped packets.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  begin the installation process and take the options to install to
    special devices.  search for FCoE targets/LUNs.
2.  once the FCoE target search is completed, switch to a command line console 
    query the state of the FCoE application TLV.  Ex.  dcbtool gc eth0 app:fcoe

  
Actual results:
The dcbtool query will show that the FCoE Application TLV is not enabled.
(can also check for the 'dcbtool' commands in /tmp/program.log file and check
for the results of the commands to see if they succeeded or failed)


Expected results:
The FCoE Application TLV should be enabled.
