If you ifdown bond4 then ifup it, does the bond mode properly update to bond mode 1? If not, it sounds like an initscripts or bonding module bug.

I found the problem... On the VM host, I had a bond set up between two network interfaces. The bond mode was set to mode 1 (active/passive). However when I look at the bond on the box, I get this: [root@node02 bonding]# cat bond4 Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.7.1 (April 27, 2011) Bonding Mode: load balancing (round-robin) MII Status: up MII Polling Interval (ms): 0 Up Delay (ms): 0 Down Delay (ms): 0 Slave Interface: em2 MII Status: up Speed: 1000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: d4:ae:52:6d:c8:cc Slave queue ID: 0 Slave Interface: em3 MII Status: up Speed: 1000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: d4:ae:52:6d:c8:ce Slave queue ID: 0 Somehow, the OS is not setting the bonding mode right. I verified that it was set to mode 1 in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfe-bond4 When I take the bond away, the host network works perfectly on both of the formerly bonded interfaces. So again, if anyone has any ideas, I'm open to suggestions.

Hi, just out of curiosity (I'm also looking at implementing bonding on our ComputeNodes): Which OS version are you running ? -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Regards Sven Kieske Systemadministrator Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co.
