What is the recommended behaviour of distro network scripts with the root-on-iscsi interface?
My CentOS root-on-iscsi systems seems to configure all network interfaces like a regular disk installation (controlled by /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX). This always seems to cause a hiccup in init scripts: connection1:0: ping timeout of 5 secs expired, recv timeout 5, last rx 4294682021, last ping 4294687024, now 4294692032 connection1:0: detected conn error (1011) connection2:0: detected conn error (1020) connection3:0: detected conn error (1020) Won't this behaviour break the root disk session? Or is it supposed to be tolerable: if the network scripts do the right thing there will be a route to a portal and the session will be reestablised? Fedora 19 does something even more drastic: if rewrites the network configuration with stuff obtained from the initramfs boot; this safe behaviour practically guarantees that the network configuration will be compatible with that in the initramfs so finding the target should be a no-brainer; nevertheless the interfaces are brought up again (redundantly?). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
