[lustre-discuss] lnetctl --ip2net configures first interface

[Jesse Stroik]

For newer lustre client systems, I've begun using lustre 2.10.x. Dynamic 
lnet configuration is very helpful and it saves a lot of trouble in our 
environment. However, I've noticed that when using ip2net, lnetctl will 
assign the first interface available when that doesn't seem to be its 
intended behavior.

Example:

=======
[root at c7test etc]# lctl list_nids 
 

[root at c7test etc]# lnetctl net add --ip2net "tcp0 128.104.109.*" 
 

[root at c7test etc]# lctl list_nids 
 

192.168.1.5 at tcp
=======

The system in question has three interfaces, two of which are assigned 
IP addresses. ens224 is 192.168.1.5/24 and ens256 is 128.104.109.161/22.

Best,
Jesse Stroik
