Overtaxed Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 I have a active-backup (1) bond setup on my UnRAID (6.9.2) server between a 10G and 1G adapter. I want the 10G adapter, if it has a link, to always be the active partner. Was seeing a whole bunch of traffic out of my 1G switch from UnRAID and logged in to find this: root@unraid:/proc/net/bonding# cat bond0 Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v5.10.28-Unraid Bonding Mode: fault-tolerance (active-backup) Primary Slave: None Currently Active Slave: eth1 MII Status: up MII Polling Interval (ms): 100 Up Delay (ms): 0 Down Delay (ms): 0 Peer Notification Delay (ms): 0 Slave Interface: eth0 MII Status: up Speed: 10000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 1 Permanent HW addr: 90:e2:ba:2e:ee:bc Slave queue ID: 0 Slave Interface: eth1 MII Status: up Speed: 1000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 2 Permanent HW addr: 00:d8:61:37:1e:13 Slave queue ID: 0 I bounced the interface on eth1 and, as expected, UnRAID failed back to the 10G link and everything looks good: root@unraid:/proc/net/bonding# cat bond0 Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v5.10.28-Unraid Bonding Mode: fault-tolerance (active-backup) Primary Slave: None Currently Active Slave: eth0 MII Status: up MII Polling Interval (ms): 100 Up Delay (ms): 0 Down Delay (ms): 0 Peer Notification Delay (ms): 0 Slave Interface: eth0 MII Status: up Speed: 10000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 1 Permanent HW addr: 90:e2:ba:2e:ee:bc Slave queue ID: 0 Slave Interface: eth1 MII Status: down Speed: Unknown Duplex: Unknown Link Failure Count: 3 Permanent HW addr: 00:d8:61:37:1e:13 Slave queue ID: 0 Question is, how to I make it so that if the 10G NIC has a link, it will use that as the primary at all times? In the GUI, bonding members of bond0 show as "eth0, eth1". I set eth0 to be the 10G NIC, I thought UnRAID always preferred the lower number, so I set eth0 to the 10G NIC using "Interface Rules".
