Subject: [PVE-User] Again (not) renaming interfaces...
Date: Thu, 2 Oct 2025 12:54:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <h722rl-bj51.ln1@leia.lilliput.linux.it> (raw)
Some servers, all upgraded from PVE6 to PVE7 and then PVE8.
Still i have some server Dell PowerEdge T440 that, sometime, not ever, fail
to rename interfaces, some log:
Oct 2 11:44:03 pppve2 (udev-worker)[891]: lo: Invalid network interface name, ignoring:
Oct 2 11:44:03 pppve2 (udev-worker)[869]: eth1: Could not set AlternativeName= or apply AlternativeNamesPolicy=, ignoring: File exists
Oct 2 11:44:03 pppve2 (udev-worker)[869]: ens1f1: Failed to rename network interface 3 from 'eth1' to 'ens1f1': File exists
Oct 2 11:44:03 pppve2 (udev-worker)[869]: ens1f1: Failed to process device, ignoring: File exists
Oct 2 11:44:03 pppve2 (udev-worker)[899]: eno1: Could not set AlternativeName= or apply AlternativeNamesPolicy=, ignoring: File exists
clearly, ifup2 does not found ens1f1 and don't bind the interface to the
bond.
I need to check manually the bond:
root@pppve2:~# ip link | grep bond0
2: ens1f0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq master bond0 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
5: eno1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq master bond0 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
10: bond0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master vmbr0 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
root@pppve2:~# ip link | grep bond1
6: eno2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq master bond1 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
12: bond1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master vmbr1 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
root@pppve2:~# ip link | grep bond2
4: ens5f0np0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9000 qdisc mq master bond2 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
7: ens5f1np1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9000 qdisc mq master bond2 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
9: bond2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9000 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
find missing interface:
root@pppve2:~# ip link | grep eth[0-9]
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq master bond1 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
and manually bind them:
root@pppve2:~# ip link set eth1 master bond1
root@pppve2:~# ip link | grep bond1
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq master bond1 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
6: eno2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq master bond1 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
12: bond1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master vmbr1 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
Why? It is better to fire up a bug?
Thanks.
