[SOLVED] 8.2.2 - ZONES and VNETS always in NEW state (/etc/network/interfaces.d/ not populated)

[Axl_fzetafs]

Hi,

I haven't added any particular package for SDN after the installation.
I created bond0 whose members are two physical interface and linked vmbr0 to it.
Both bond0 and vmbr0 come up just fine.
All of above by using Linux objects, no OVS.

I then created 5 zones 802.1ad linked to vmbr0 and 2 VNETs each of them linked to a specific zone.

In the GUI both the zones and the vnets are stuck in NEW state and I have noticed that the directory /etc/network/interfaces.d/ is not populated at all. From my previous experience with 7.4, such directory should be populated with a configuration files about interface that make use of VETH links, shouldn't it?

the file /etc/network/interfaces does source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*

ifreload -a -d returns an exit status of 0, but I see it reports that idoesn't find some executables, some of them related to OVS that I don't use at all.

What am I doing wrong?
As a workaround, is there a way to manually trigger the creation of those files by launching a script?

[shanreich]

can you post the output of the following commands?

cat /etc/network/interfaces
cat /etc/pve/sdn/*

Does applying the configuration work? Can you post the task log when applying the SDN configuration?

@shanreich , shame on me. It was a bit that I hadn't worked with ProxMox and I looked for the bottom "Apply" within the sections "Zones" and "VNETs". Instead is at the SDN section level.

FYI: while working on the issue, the GUI threw another error: basically I gave an IP address to the vmbr0 (based on a bond0). Apparently in Linux is possible, but the GUI rejects it. I thought zone and vnet changes were not applied due to that. So I removed everything (started from VNETs and Zones) and created every object from scratch, of course it was not the root cause.

So, the answer was that I didn't apply the changes

Sorry for such a newbie question, but may I say that it is not written anywhere in the docs? May I suggest to maybe add a small reminder in the zone and vnet section that to apply changes you must "go up" one level? Or for a better UX, once there are pending changes, the SDN label start blinking (I know ProxMox front end devs might be limited in what they can and cannot do in the GUI.

Anyway, thanks again for taking time with replying to me!
