Bug #10666
closedConfigured Alias interface doesn't come up automatically after host provisioning
Description
Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1225360
Description of problem:
I was trying to configure alias interface while provisioning a discovered host with rhel71. I passed eth0 mac and selected static subnet. Also checked the Virtual and Managed checkboxes.
when host was provisioned successfully, I didn't see alias interface with ifconfig -a. However configuration file of alias interface was there. and it was correctly configured. But the interface didn't come up automatically after provisioning. When I executed ifup eth0:0", interface came up with ip address.
Please note that this is the issue only on rhel71. On rhel66 I can correctly see the configured interface and it automatically come-up after provisioning.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sat6.1 GA snap5
How reproducible:
always on rhel71
Steps to Reproduce:
1. discover a host
2. provision it with rhel71
3. add alias interface
Actual results:
Configured Alias interface doesn't come up automatically after host provisioning
Expected results:
interface should come up. no manual intervention should require.

Confirmed on network manager IRC channel, NM ignores Alias config file if physical device does not have IPADDR parameter. Until it's fixed in upstream, one workaround is to change the config file name. Second workaround is to insert IPADDR=whatever to parent (physical) device config file. Since Alias type is deprecated we should later change the configuration snippet to configure aliases as IPADDR#{n} on parent device.
