Subject: [PATCH] IPsrcaddr: Add warning about DHCP
|
|
|
a4c26e |
|
|
|
a4c26e |
If DHCP is enabled for the interface that serves OCF_RESKEY_ipaddress,
|
|
|
a4c26e |
then NetworkManager (and possibly dhclient in systems without NM;
|
|
|
a4c26e |
unsure) may later re-add a route that the IPsrcaddr resource replaced.
|
|
|
a4c26e |
This may cause the resource to fail or cause other unexpected behavior.
|
|
|
a4c26e |
|
|
|
a4c26e |
So far this has been observed with a default route, albeit with an edge
|
|
|
a4c26e |
case of a configuration (OCF_RESKEY_ipaddress on a different subnet)
|
|
|
a4c26e |
that may not be totally valid. There are likely to be other situations
|
|
|
a4c26e |
as well where DHCP can cause conflicts with IPsrcaddr's manual updates
|
|
|
a4c26e |
via iproute. The safest option is to use only static configuration for
|
|
|
a4c26e |
the involved interface.
