  • Issue after upgrade 6.8.2 then downgrade 6.8.0

    • Minor

    I upgraded from 6.8.0 to 6.8.2, i read the change log and saw that support for some Intel PCI NIC's was removed.  I have a 82541PI NIC installed and wasn't sure if it would work.  I performed the upgrade and it didn't work, so I logged in to the server and downgraded back to 6.8.0.

     

    After the downgrade the hostname changed to Tower, causing my virtually static IP mapping to fail so it came up with the wrong IP address.  I recreated the virtual static mapping.  Then I found that even though I am getting the correct IP address now there is no DNS info showing on the network settings page.  DNS is not functioning, cannot resolve names now.  As well since the downgrade the server locks up frequently with no warning.

     

    What supported NIC's are current?  Is there a list available?

     

    Then I can re-apply the update and hopefully get the server working correctly again.

    I reattempted the upgrade.  There seems to be an issue with network timing after the upgrade, upon the first re-boot I was able to get an address with DHCP.  Then upon a re-boot non-gui I ended up with a default IP/16.  I setup as static, it works but with a long wait to start the networking, aprox one min after the login comes up on the server the network activates.

     

    I can upload logs if required.

    The timing issue with networking for some configurations on the 6.8.2 release has been reported a number of times and apparently has been fixed for the next Unraid release.
