Regarding comment #9: Maybe there is some type of race condition that could cause the bug but I have many servers that had never shown this bug. And regardless of any possible race condition, the SRU guarantees that the bug will appear.
Regarding comment #8 and #9: I tried the config as suggested by Steve and unfortunately it makes things worse. bond0 doesn't even come up. Since bond0 no longer has an "auto bond0" stanza, I see nothing in if-pre-up.d/ifenslave which would bring up bond0. Also, the README mentions: "The master interface will be created and set up at the time the first slave is set up, according to bond_* options in the *slave* stanza. For this reason, in order to get consistent results, the values of all the bond_* options should be identical in the master stanza and in all the possible slave stanzas." but your example does not do this (I don't think this has anything to do with the problem but I mention it just in case). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/823366 Title: bond_primary is ignored in /etc/network/interfaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifenslave-2.6/+bug/823366/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
