[Bug 915025] New: wicked/dhcp address not acquired later when cable is plugged in
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=915025 Bug ID: 915025 Summary: wicked/dhcp address not acquired later when cable is plugged in Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: 13.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: per@computer.org QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Hardware: DL380G3, 6 x GiGE NICs, 2Gb RAM Software: opensuse 13.2 plus updates Default network setup, with renaming to ethX. Only eth0 is configured with DHCP, start on boot. All pretty normal stuff. When the machine is booted without a network cable plugged into eth0, it comes up with no address on eth0. When the cable is later plugged in, I expect the interface to acquire an address right away. Which it doesn't - I have to invoke ifdown/ifup it manually. I think this is a regression, but I haven't double-checked. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

You could try if changing this to true helps: /etc/wicked/common.xml: <use-nanny>false</use-nanny>
Yep, changing that to 'true' recreates the previous behaviour. I don't know what else it does :-( It seems to me an interface with dhcp should continue broadcasting for an address until it gets one. Possible reasons for DHCP not being immediately available - dhcp-server not running, dhcp-server not reachable, client's mac-addr not configured, cable not connected etc etc. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
