We have an secondary nic on a private network as a back door into our servers. The Elemental hosts use NetworkManager and the eth0 interface just works out of box. Harvester uses

wicked

and it throws a fit when I try to ifup/down it. Is there a general way to tell wicked/harvester to use the interface with DHCP?

Looks like it might need something in

/etc/sysconfig/network

You have to write a file:

/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eno1

Copy code

STARTMODE='auto'
BOOTPROTO='dhcp'
DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE='no'

After:

wicked ifreload eno1
