I'm trying to configure DCB in back-to-back scenario.
System details
OS :- CentOS 7.2
kernel 3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64
lldpad:- lldpad v0.9.46
dcbtool:- v0.9.46
ixgbe :- ixgbe-4.3.15
steps followed:-
# modporbe ixgbe
# service lldpad start
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start lldpad.service
# service lldpad status
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status lldpad.service
● lldpad.service - Link Layer Discovery Protocol Agent Daemon.
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/lldpad.service; disabled; vendor

# dcbtool gc p3p2 dcb
Command: Get Config
Feature: DCB State
Port: p3p2
Status: Successful
DCB State: off
# dcbtool sc p3p2 dcb on
Command: Set Config
Feature: DCB State
Port: p3p2
Status: Successful
# dcbtool gc p3p2 dcb
Command: Get Config
Feature: DCB State
Port: p3p2
Status: Successful
DCB State: on
Similar configuration on another system.
But as soon as I do "ifconfig p3p2 up and check dcb
# dcbtool gc p3p2 dcb
Command: Get Config
Feature: DCB State
Port: p3p2
Status: Successful
DCB State: off
Initially suspecting issue with lldpad daemon/ixgbe driver. I replaced them
(downloaded from repo) with latest packages.
Same behaviour observed.
- Tried disabling other dcb features like fcoe. Same issue.
- Disabled selinux etc
Can any 1 help me regarding this.
