[jira] [Created] (VCL-953) Ubuntu.pm clobbers /etc/network/interfaces even if listed in vcl_exclude_list

Andy Kurth created VCL-953:
------------------------------

             Summary: Ubuntu.pm clobbers /etc/network/interfaces even if listed in vcl_exclude_list
                 Key: VCL-953
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-953
             Project: VCL
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: vcld (backend)
    Affects Versions: 2.4.2
            Reporter: Andy Kurth
            Assignee: Andy Kurth
             Fix For: 2.5


There are several places in Ubuntu.pm which may alter the /etc/network/interfaces on the computer being loaded or captured which are not checking if it is listed in /root/.vclcontrol/vcl_exclude_list.

I came across this while attempting to capture an Ubuntu KVM image which had bridges configured in the interfaces file.  The capture process mangled the file causing the image's network to not come up when loaded.

We'll need to figure out how to address this since some subroutines really need to alter the file, such as when setting a static IP.
