ERR Error: argument "enx8cae4cfe75f2.101" is wrong: "name" too long

Asked by dan tiernan

Hello,

I am trying to create an openstack environment using Danube x86. The OS loads to the nodes and then OpenStack starts to load and on the controller I get the following errors.

2017-05-02 21:13:30 ERR Error: argument "enx8cae4cfe75f2.101" is wrong: "name" too long
2017-05-02 21:13:30 ERR Command 'ip link add link enx8cae4cfe75f2 name enx8cae4cfe75f2.101 type vlan id 101' has been failed with exit_code=255.

Is appears the interface name is based on mac address and exceeds the 16 character limit when adding the vlan ID to the interface.

How do I get around this problem - how do I configure Predictable Network Interface Names so i can avoid this error?

please advise,

thanks,
dan

not sure why no one has responded to the reported issue - but the problem is still there and cannot create an OS environment. can you advise what is a viable work around or a fix for this specific
problem?
