Testing scenario as follows:
- multipath - two boot attempts defined
- link on a secondary network interface is up at EFI boot time (this creates ACPI NBFT table with two records)
- link on a secondary network interface is taken down before kernel start (i.e. at the time of a grub menu prompt)
- kernel boots up, initramfs dracut scripts will find two NBFT records, only one path gets connected successfully, the other one fails with Network is unreachable
- link on a secondary network interface comes up sometime after boot
Expected:
- link up is detected on nbft1 by NetworkManager, interface is set up (DHCP lease, routes, etc.)
- nvmf-connect-nbft.service will connect remaining targets as defined in NBFT
Actual observations/issues:
- needs https://github.com/linux-nvme/nvme-cli/pull/2078
- bug: the nvmf-connect-nbft.service systemd unit is not being started, no connection attempts are made --> missing hook somewhere or wrong service unit dependencies
- manual systemctl start nvmf-connect-nbft.service will get all remaining paths connected
