SLES11 SP1 - Host Based Routing problem with xen

SUSE Product Topics SLES Virtualization

Hi.

I really need some help. I have set up 3 xen vms with host based
routing. When all vms are up networking works fine.

The problem is when I shutdown only one vm, networking suddenly stops
in all vms. When I restart the vm, networking starts to work again.

It seems there is something wrong with the removing of the vif devices
on vm shutdowns.

Thanks Chris

I am using my own firewall rules with iptables.

When I remove the hotplug-interface with ifdown manually all networking
stops. After running my firewall script or ifup network starts working
again.

SOLVED!

Ich have added my firewall script at the top of vif-route-ifup and
xen-hotplug-cleanup.

Peace Chris
