Hi everyone, I'me having trouble with a CentOS 7 guest running on a Hyper-V host. For some reason, the CentOS guest randomly drops its IP address. Running "systemctl restart NetworkManager" on the console will restore IP connectivity without a reboot. I think that DHCP is timing out, but I'm not sure what to do about it. Is there a way to tell NetworkManager to keep trying after a timeout? Here are the versions of the kernel and NetworkManager: Kernel: 3.10.0-693.11.1.el7.x86_64 NetworkManager: 1.8.0-11.el7_4.x86_64 Here are some pertinent logs: Dec 23 03:30:26 myhost kernel: hv_utils: Using TimeSync version 3.0 Dec 23 03:30:27 myhost systemd: Time has been changed Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.3750] device (eth0): link connected Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.3762] device (eth0): DHCPv4 lease renewal requested Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.3889] dhcp4 (eth0): canceled DHCP transaction, DHCP client pid 7936 Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.3890] dhcp4 (eth0): state changed bound -> done Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.3899] dhcp4 (eth0): activation: beginning transaction (timeout in 45 seconds) Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.4487] dhcp4 (eth0): dhclient started with pid 33165 Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost dhclient[33165]: DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 (xid=0x5cb111f1) Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost dhclient[33165]: DHCPACK from xxx.xxx.36.1 (xid=0x5cb111f1) Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.5824] dhcp4 (eth0): address xxx.xxx.37.53 Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.5825] dhcp4 (eth0): plen 23 (255.255.254.0) Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.5826] dhcp4 (eth0): gateway xxx.xxx.36.1 Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.5826] dhcp4 (eth0): lease time 7200 Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.5826] dhcp4 (eth0): nameserver 'xxx.xxx.0.20' Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.5826] dhcp4 (eth0): nameserver 'xxx.xxx.0.30' Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.5826] dhcp4 (eth0): domain name 'example.com' Dec 23 03:30:33 myhost NetworkManager[788]: <info> [1514017833.5826] dhcp (eth0): domain search 'example.com.'
