The exception is the same but the origin of the problem is not. Basically the exception is raised when there is an inconsistency in the interface type, in this case the interface (bond0) should be a bond interface but it is detected as a eth interface. $["bus":"PCI", "bus_hwcfg":"pci", "bus_id":1, "class_id":2, "dev_name":"bond0", "dev_names":["bond0"], "device":"82599 10 Gigabit Dual Port Backplane Connection", "device_id":69880, "driver":"ixgbe", "driver_module":"ixgbe", "drivers":[$["active":true, "modprobe":true, "modules":[["ixgbe", ""]]]], "func_id":1, "modalias":"pci:v00008086d000010F8sv0000103Csd000018D0bc02sc00i00", "model":"Hewlett-Packard Company Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 560FLB Adapter", "old_unique_key":"fmF7.fgiiCosKJzC", "parent_unique_key":"_Znp.3B9ooyvRRt3", "resource":$["hwaddr":[$["addr":"14:02:ec:83:a0:75"]] Is the bond active?, It seems that not, and that that bond0 It seems that the bond0 is not active, and it is detected as what should be the eth1 And when "/sys/class/net/bond0/bonding" is checked it seems to not exist, is really the bond0 active? BTW, please create a separate bug, if not this one will start to be like a box to put all of them that looks similar.
