domU disregard static IP information at boot time

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My dom0 has kernel 2.6.20-2931.fc7xen whereas the
fully virtualised 
domU has kernel 2.6.21-1.3194.fc7.

I wanted a static IP address for the domU thus I
specified it during 
installation + in the xen config file.

Notwithstanding all my efforts to tell it that it has
to use a static IP 
address, whenever domU boots it always look for a DHCP
server to get its 
IP address from.
Even changing the lines in ifcfg-eth0 to define a
static IP address is not a solution. With next reboot
it still wants a DHCP server to provide the IP
address.
Changing ifcfg-eth0 + issuing an "service network
restart" works as long as there is no reboot. As soon
as I reboot the odd behaviour prevails.

Where may act to change this behaviour?
