[Users] ovirt LACP/port aggregation fails to initialize on node boot
I'm experimenting with LACP/port aggregation on my public network interface in my oVirt test setup. My goal is to bind two 1G ports together. Our network operations team configured two 1G switch ports appropriately, and I set up the bond between eth0 and eth1 on the node using the engine. I can't configure the IP of the interface statically because then I don't get the option to set a gateway, which I need for our public network. Using DHCP worked before enabling LACP (which acquires the gateway from the DHCP record). After enabling LACP, when the node boots, it doesn't get an address. The node gets hostname "localhost". I have to login to the admin, hit F2, "ifdown PublicNet" "ifup PublicNet", but then it works! There's obviously some minor delay issue during node initialization, but there should be some way to tell it to wait a bit longer?

Hi Jason, Can you please send a pastebin of 'vdsClient 0 getVdsCaps' (or 'vdsClient -s 0 getVdsCaps') on the host with the bond?
Jason.
