Hi Hari, I can recreate the problem. Once the setup has reached problematic state, observed all the issues Amit has mentioned. But to reach this state I have to remove one slave interface from bond and restart network services. With normal flap of interface and network restart never able to reproduce the problem(change of bond mac). Tried running fab add_static_route multiple time. Which is original trigger. Can we see the bonding configuration once ? Is it done through fab task ? root@nodei9:~# ifconfig bond0 bond0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:25:90:e4:08:e5>>>>>>>>>>>> inet6 addr: fe80::225:90ff:fee4:8e5/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MASTER MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:66991876 errors:0 dropped:38 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:40657426 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:14582541218 (14.5 GB) TX bytes:15205158719 (15.2 GB) root@nodei9:~# ifconfig vhost0 vhost0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:25:90:e4:08:e4>>>>>>>>>>>>> vhost and bond having different config inet addr:192.168.22.4 Bcast:192.168.22.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::225:90ff:fee4:8e4/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:10414086 errors:0 dropped:912 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:10211823 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:13980201687 (13.9 GB) TX bytes:17861939531 (17.8 GB) In bonding with fab ‹‹‹‹‹‹‹‹‹‹------------------ root@nodei9:~# ifconfig p6p1 p6p1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:25:90:e4:08:e4 >>>>>>>>>>>>>> UP BROADCAST RUNNING SLAVE MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:53299835 errors:0 dropped:2425 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:16579042 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:13166191099 (13.1 GB) TX bytes:12684156223 (12.6 GB) root@nodei9:~# ifconfig p6p2 p6p2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:25:90:e4:08:e4>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> UP BROADCAST RUNNING SLAVE MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:67287029 errors:0 dropped:2477 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:40981312 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:14712314080 (14.7 GB) TX bytes:15627041363 (15.6 GB) root@nodei9:~# ifconfig bond0 bond0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:25:90:e4:08:e4>>>>>>>>>Both the slave has mac of bond0 inet6 addr: fe80::225:90ff:fee4:8e4/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MASTER MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:120613044 errors:0 dropped:4902 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:57560635 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:27881390442 (27.8 GB) TX bytes:28311340765 (28.3 GB) root@nodei9:~# ifconfig p6p1 down root@nodei9:~# ifconfig p6p1 bond0 root@nodei9:~# ifconfig bond0 bond0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:25:90:e4:08:e4 >>>> Even when we shut the master interface bond mac is not changing inet6 addr: fe80::225:90ff:fee4:8e4/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MASTER MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:120744646 errors:0 dropped:4902 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:57562048 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:27895888836 (27.8 GB) TX bytes:28312065072 (28.3 GB) Thanks and Regards, Chhandak On 5/13/15, 3:04 AM, "amit surana"
