Summary: xend "hides" network interfaces
Product: Xen
Version: unstable
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Tools
AssignedTo: xen-...@lists.xensource.com
ReportedBy: ehrh...@linux.vnet.ibm.com
Using a xend configuration with a named bridge like:
(network-script 'network-bridge bridge=perfnet netdev=eth1')
let xend "hide" the network interface from the system.
The related messages like driver init etc. appear in dmesg, var/log/messages,
... as usual while booting/running Dom0, but after xend starts the
bridge-configured network device is "lost" e.g. unusable and "ifconfig -a" does
no more show it.
Unfortunately it is not 100% reproducible, but I'll try if someone asks for
specific details or logs.
