Post by Split »

Hi everyone,

i´m reconfig the ip and it works again. There are a TC0918-ed03 where this issue is explain. The TC says folling about CORRECTION:

The fix (GD binary) is at least in following versions:

R8.0 G1.302.6.c
G1.302.7
43.8

the customer system works on R9.0 patch 24 and the binary version of GD is 44.8.1 i think it musst be fixed

Has anybody the same experience in R9.0 with lost ip config ?

Read TC 918 (GD LOSES ITS IP PARAMETERS)
From this TC
To prevent the GD losing its IP parameter, the following procedure should be used for each GD (after re-entering IP parameters):
Log as root on the GD (using su – command).
Use the "save_ifcfgeth0" command.
