Hi folks, 2 Problems: For a test I have unplugged one of my bonded network cables for a few minutes. When the cable was back it was ignored :-(. The link beat LEDs stayed off. Even worse: ifconfig and /proc/net/bonding/\ bond1 claimed that everything is fine, i.e. monitoring the cable does not work. This is fatal. The system is supposed to be a HA NFS server: 2 identical hosts, each with 6 1Gbit NICs (all e1000). 4 bonded lines are connected to a switch, and 2 bonded lines are cross-over to the other host to be watched by heartbeat and to run the drbd synchronization. The cross-over connection is showing both problems. The cables connected to a switch become active again when they are back, but monitoring was broken. Bonding mode is balance-rr for bond0 and bond1. AFAICS all 6 lines are managed by the same driver instance. Kernel is 2.6.29.4. Any idea how to recover or recognize the lost cables would be highly appreciated.
