Workaround

Restart lacpd after tmm has come up again: "bigstart restart lacpd" Alternatively, modify /etc/bigstart/scripts/tmm.finish to restart lacpd on tmm going down Modify this line: for d in admd asm avrd dosl7d; do With these: for d in lacpd admd asm avrd dosl7d; do if [ `$BIGSTART singlestatus $d` = "run" ]; then $BIGSTART restart $d & fi done
