Hello, I know OVS support in wickedd is limited, and I might have some setup that is more than supported, but I hope we can get somewhere with this. I am still running the 42.1 wicked version 0.6.31. I have two OVS bridges, I'll skip the 'tunnels' bridge, as I don't configure any interfaces on it through wickedd. It's just for reference, if wicked behaves differently if it has more than one bridge. Then, I have the 'vms' OVS bridge that I use for KVM - I specify the VLANs the VMs are to join. The VMs connect fine, so also out of scope. I configure the 'vms' bridge: ovs-vsctl add-br vms On the host side, I only want connect to one of these VLANs - vlan100, so I configure only that: # cat /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-vlan100 MTU='1394' STARTMODE='auto' BOOTPROTO='static' OVS_BRIDGE='yes' OVS_BRIDGE_VLAN_PARENT='vms' OVS_BRIDGE_VLAN_TAG='100' BROADCAST='10.100.0.255' IPADDR='10.100.0.4' NETMASK='255.255.255.0' NETWORK='10.100.0.0' Then, I run an ifup vlan100 and everything seems fine... but. After reboot I get (I am skipping most logs for now, there's nothing interesting in them but this): vlan100: <parent> element references unknown device vms vlan100: cannot resolve reference ovs-bridge/vlan/parent to subordinate device yet ... and it seems the vms bridge disappeared! The 'tunnels' bridge is there after a reboot, they are persistently stored in OVS's DB, so it must have been removed by... wicked! Unfortunately, although I set journald.conf's Storage=persistent, I wasn't able to get logs from before a reboot. I don't see why wicked would remove any bridges, but well... that reproduces on every reboot. I found some code that removes OVS bridges in the wicked code... Why is that there? And even so, I did not tell wicked to configure 'vms' interface nor bridge, just a vlan100 port inside it, so it being removed is somewhat unexpected. Another pecularity: After the boot I re-create the vms bridge, ifup vlan100. Then I remove the bridge and re-create it yet again, without doing an ifdown vlan100 first. Then: # ifup vlan100 vlan100 no-device # ifdown vlan100 wicked: ifdown: no matching interfaces Subsequent bringup of the interface works: # ifup vlan100 vlan100 up Best regards, Bolesław Tokarski -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: wicked-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: wicked-devel+owner@opensuse.org
