      Took lab instance from 2.5.0 to 2.5.1.r.20210317.0300.

      Upon reboot, FRR is stopped. Have to manually start it and it will stay up.

      Anyone else / Known issue or shall I dig around and see if we have something for redmine ?

        @mfld Please check /var/etc/frr/frr.conf and /var/log/frr/frr-reload.log for any errors

          @mfld Please check /var/etc/frr/frr.conf and /var/log/frr/frr-reload.log for any errors

          Just did another update

          From 2.5.1.r.20210317.0300 to 2.5.1.r.20210318.0300

          FRR was running and BGP session was established.

          Upgrade done, rebooted. FRR not running.

          cat /var/etc/frr/frr.conf
          cat: /var/etc/frr/frr.conf: No such file or directory
          

          as for /var/log/frr/frr-reload.log it has no entries after the time that the reboot started. No clues as to why it would fail to start.

          When I go to Services -> FRR Global / Zebra, uncheck "Enable FRR", save, check it again, save again, all comes up and stays up until next reboot.
