Something happened and my NIC will not come up
Posted: Sun Feb 02, 2014 10:43 pm
So, I had a strange crash with my HDA (Amahi 7.1 on Fedora 19). I had two explorer windows open on my Windows client and tried to move files from one Amahi share to another. It worked for a bit, then crashed the server. After rebooting the HDA and, oddly, needing to cycle my switch, I got everything back up.
Since I wanted to see if it would happen again, I tried again. Yes, it did crash my HDA. However, now I cannot get it back up properly. I have rebooted and cold shutdown all my machines, my switches, everything. My current problem is when the HDA boots up, there is no eth0. If I give the command "ifconfig eth0 up" it shows up, but without an IP address and with no actual network connection.
This is the contents of my ifcfg-eth0 file in network-scripts:
# Generated by dracut initrd
DEVICE="eth0"
ONBOOT=yes
NETBOOT=yes
UUID="132dedb4-b179-4576-aa81-70dfb291f7cf"
BOOTPROTO=none
TYPE=Ethernet
NAME="eth0"
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6INIT=no
IPADDR0=192.168.28.10
PREFIX0=24
GATEWAY0=192.168.28.1
DNS1=208.67.222.222
DNS2=208.67.220.220
So I am at a big loss. An HDA without network connectivity is not very useful. Any help out there on how to test why this happened?
