Package: linux-kernel-headers
Version: 2.6.18
Severity: grave
Hello together,
we downloaded Debian4.0 and Debian4.0R1 and detected a bug with the
network-interface. This bug exists in both releases.
We use it on zSeries [architecture is s390].
The problem:
============
If we reboot the system, the HSI network-interface won't automatically
come up. We have to set them up manually in z/VM with
echo 1 /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/"VIRTUAL_ADR_OF_DEVICE"/online
and modify the default-route, IP-address of the network-interface and
reload the ssh daemon. Now we can connect again with putty.
Our solution is a workaround:
=============================
We append /etc/init.d/network with the echo command at following
position:
### END INIT INFO
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin"
### Our workaround
echo 1 > /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/"VIRTUAL_ADR_OF_DEVICE"/online
[ -x /sbin/ifup ] || exit 0
Now the qeth Device comes up at (re)boot automatically and
we can connect with putty to the server.
Our question:
=============
Is it possible to fix this problem? We use a lot of z/Linux servers with
more than one network-interface and our workaround is not very efficient :-)
Thanks a lot!
Joachim Krais
