Subject: Reminder: /tmp/net.$netif.* files
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2009 13:57:10 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A392E76.5020909@redhat.com> (raw)

If you write a file to /tmp/net.$netif.* please be sure it only exists 
if that interface ends up as part of the netboot.  The net.* files are 
to be considered post-switch_root by initscripts or NetworkManager.  We 
don't want those tools to be confused by net.* files from aborted 
interfaces that were not part of the netboot.

A tricky part might be ensuring net.* files for constituent interfaces 
part of layered interfaces like bridges or bonds, in addition to net.* 
files for the bridge or bond.
