Centos7 with private network lost fixed IP

I've a network issue with a centos7 vagrant box. When I setup a private network, with fixed IP, this one is well binding first, but get lost after some seconds/minutes.

With this vagrant file :

vagrant.configure(2) do |config|

 config.vm.box = "centos7"
 config.vm.hostname = "docker-registry"
 config.vm.box_url = "https://github.com/holms/vagrant-centos7-box/releases/download/7.1.1503.001/CentOS-7.1.1503-x86_64-netboot.box"

 #config.vm.network "public_network"
 config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.100.20"
 #config.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", type: "nfs"

 # VirtualBox
 config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb|
   vb.name = "poc_docker"
   vb.memory = 3072
   vb.cpus = 2
   vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--natdnshostresolver1", "on"]
   vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--natdnsproxy1", "on"]
 end


end

When I connect on the box, it seems that the ip is lost.

sudo /sbin/ifup eth1

Fix the problem temporary, but the IP get losts sometime again. Rebooting the box (vagrant halt && vagrant up) seem to fix the problem permanently. I've try to create a custom centos 7 box with Packer ( https://atlas.hashicorp.com/sfeirbenelux/boxes/centos7), and I reproduce the issue too.

I suppose that's a Centos 7 specific issue ? Do you already have the same problem ? Is there a way to fix this by adding a vagrant command ?

My environment :

OS X Yosemite ➜ ~ vagrant --version Vagrant 1.7.2 ➜ ~ VBoxManage --version 4.3.26r98988

回答1:

It seems that's a problem due to DHCP configuration ( issue : https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/5590 )

the network service doesn't reload NetworkManager, so it will continue to wait for dhcp lease .. and after dhcp timeout, the fixed ip is removed.

Adding a shell provision script with

sudo nmcli connection reload
sudo systemctl restart network.service

Fixes the problem

EDIT: vagrant 1.7.3+ fixes the bug too ;)

There seems to be a similar issue in newer Vagrant versions (1.9.1).

A pull request that fixes the issue was already merged (not released yet):

https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/pull/8148

If you want to apply that fix you can try this (sudo may be required, depending on the file permissions):

Locate you local Vagrant installation (on Fedora it is /opt/vagrant/)
Move to the folder of the vagrant gem:
```
cd embedded/gems/gems/vagrant-1.9.1
```

Initialize a new Git Repository and add the GitHub remote:

git init
git remote add origin https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant.git
git fetch --all

Checkout a new branch and reset it to your current release (e.g. 1.9.1).

If you are unsure if you have local changes do not use --hard and do a git diff / git checkout after the reset:
```
git checkout -b hotfixes
git reset --hard v1.9.1
```

Now apply the hotfix:

git cherry-pick 96611341a96d7d19fdade5556a110b22c6add22b

After that a vagrant reload should bring up the local network just fine.

The fix is mentioned in: https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/pull/8148

In /opt/vagrant/embedded/gems/gems/vagrant-1.9.1/plugins/guests/redhat/cap/configure_networks.rb,

add /sbin/ifup '#{network[:device]}' right after nmcli c reload || true.
