Reminder: /tmp/net.$netif.* files

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

 



If you write a file to /tmp/net.$netif.* please be sure it only exists if that interface ends up as part of the netboot. The net.* files are to be considered post-switch_root by initscripts or NetworkManager. We don't want those tools to be confused by net.* files from aborted interfaces that were not part of the netboot.

A tricky part might be ensuring net.* files for constituent interfaces part of layered interfaces like bridges or bonds, in addition to net.* files for the bridge or bond.
