Neither HOTPLUG=yes or MANAGED=no seems to make this interface come back
up when the cable is unplugged and then plugged, unfortunately. For
instance, before unplugging anything, ifconfig says:
eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:02:C9:29:64:8F
inet addr:10.10.0.1 Bcast:10.10.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0
inet6 addr: fe80::2:c900:129:648f/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:9000 Metric:1

collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:14924 (14.5 KiB) TX bytes:3940 (3.8 KiB)
Then I unplug the cable, which, in dmesg, gives me:
mlx4_en: eth2: Link Down
And in /var/log/messages:
Mar 25 11:36:24 resolve02 ntpd[4819]: Deleting interface #14 eth2,
10.10.0.1#123, interface stats: received=0, sent=0, dropped=0,
active_time=163 secs
(Which I guess is just ntpd reacting)
And then I plug the cable back in, and in dmesg, I have:
mlx4_en: eth2: Link Up
Mar 25 11:38:09 resolve02 kernel: mlx4_en: eth2: Link Up
Mar 25 11:38:09 resolve02 NetworkManager[4429]: <info> (eth2): carrier
now ON (device state 2)
Mar 25 11:38:09 resolve02 NetworkManager[4429]: <info> (eth2): device
state change: 2 -> 3 (reason 40)
But ifconfig gives me:
eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:02:C9:29:64:8F
inet6 addr: fe80::2:c900:129:648f/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:9000 Metric:1

collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:25567 (24.9 KiB) TX bytes:3940 (3.8 KiB)
So no IP address, and no joy. ifup eth2 brings me back to:
eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:02:C9:29:64:8F
inet addr:10.10.0.1 Bcast:10.10.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0

Ideas?
