FRR Zebra / BGP do not seem to start on boot anymore

mfld

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

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.
