Command Incompatibilities
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
Known incompatibilities with various commands on various distributions, and
|
|
the workarounds we use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
brctl
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
brctl show <bridge> fails on SLES9 SP2. Workaround is to use brctl show
|
|
without arguments, and grep, though this would be difficult were you to need
|
|
to check for a specific bridge-interface pair, since brctl does not show the
|
|
bridge name on every line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ifup / ifdown
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
SuSE requires an extra parameter to ifup, which is created by calling getcfg
|
|
appropriately. See xen-network-common.sh for details.
|
|
|
|
Gentoo doesn't have ifup/ifdown; appropriate alternatives are defined in
|
|
xen-network-common.sh.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ip
|
|
--
|
|
|
|
Newer ip commands (from iproute2) do not accept the abbreviated syntax "ip r a
|
|
..." etc. "ip route add ..." must be used instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
sed
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
\s is not supported in regexps on Debian etch (sed 4.1.2), Ubuntu 4.10. We
|
|
hand-craft character classes instead.
