Package: xen-utils-common
Version: 4.1.4-3
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Executive summary: dist-upgrade - squeeze to wheezy. Rebooted machine;
no default route on network interface eth0. Commented 'transfer_addrs'
function in network-bridge produced a machine which worked after reboot.
We're using network-bridge as our xen networking configuration. After
rebooting the Dom0, we had no networking via the usual eth0 bridge.Some
digging into the problem indicated that the network-bridge script was
assigning addresses to the newly created bridge, then calling 'ifup' on
the same device. 'ifup' declined to operate on an interface with an
existing address.
/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge contains:
transfer_addrs ${netdev} ${tdev}
...
transfer_addrs ${bridge} ${pdev}
Commenting each of those lines out fixed the symptoms for me.
Happy to provide further information if that would help.
Yours,
Frank Lee
