Management interfaces bonding

Hi Admin,

How can I create a bonded interface for management network? I'm trying do that but the wizard don't allow it (webgui port 5001, before create the cluster) and I also didn't find a way to do that. Should it be configured later editing config files?

You should be able to do that in the wizard page 3. You can bond the existing management nic to another nic. What cannot be done for the management subnet is change the original management nic or address on page 4, ie you can bond the existing nic to others nics but cannot change the original one. The management nic is special since it needs to be defined in the iso installer with the ip address so that we can connect to the node to use the wizard. If you change the nic or ip the wizard will disconnect.  If you entered an incorrect nic and ip for the management interface during iso installer and would like to change it before deployment, you either re-install or change it from the regular Ubuntu file /etc/network/interfaces (in the blue node console menu open a shell or add a temp password to  connect via ssh), if you need to change it after deployment then additionally you need to change /opt/petasan/conf/cluster_info.json but in the later case i would advise to re-deploy
