Hi,

yesterday I have upgraded one single PVE node from 3.4 to 4.2 according to the upgrade guide in the Proxmox wiki. All went well except that the network is not coming up when booting. I have to manually restart it (systemctl start networking.service) then all interfaces come up. Can anyone give me a hint what could have gone wrong?

In syslog there are those messages:
