I followed Pasi's setup at http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/RHEL6Xen4Tutorial to configure and a SL6 box. This all worked great and I have a working system. When I look at my bridge with 'brctl show' I am seeing this as the output:
brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces xenbr5 /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory /sys/class/net/xenbr5/bridge: No such file or directory 8000.001125a5ce44 no bond0.5
The files are in the system as 'ls -l' shows:

I am bonding my interface eth0 and eth1 and assinging the bridge to the bond, here are my ifcfg scripts:
# Intel Corporation 82546GB Gigabit Ethernet Controller DEVICE=eth0 HWADDR=00:11:25:a5:ce:44 BOOTPROTO=none ONBOOT=yes MASTER=bond0 SLAVE=yes ISALIAS=no MTU=9000 NM_CONTROLLED=no

I read through this post, http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.xen.devel/98821, and it never did give an answer to what may be causing this. Is this something that can be ignored?
Thanks for any help,
Jon

I found the answer to this issue in a thread on the xen-users list, John Haxby explains the issue here:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2011-02/msg00760.html
What I did was download this rpm:
bridge-utils-1.2-9.fc13.x86_64.rpm
And did an rpm -Uvh and now I am seeing this on a 'brctl show' command:
brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces xenbr3 8000.001125a5ce44 no bond0.3 xenbr5 8000.001125a5ce44 no bond0.5
Pasi, you might want to look into this on your tutorial, http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/RHEL6Xen4Tutorial or mention what causes the "/sys/class/net/<BridgeName>/bridge: No such file or directory" error to appear on a 'brctl show'.
While my system still worked with the errors with no issues, the output was ugly to have to look at. :)
Hope that helps someone else,
Jon

Hi Pasi,
I do not have an account on the wiki and wasn't sure if this would be the preferred method of fixing the issue or if patching the RHEL6 bridge-utils package to remove the IGMP_snooping_support and rebuild the rpm would be better. I would think that just using the Fedora binary would suffice for now seeing as how close we are to being able to use a kernel.org kernel and I believe with that kernel this issue will disappear.
So I leave that up to you to decide which method you prefer. :)
And thanks for the great RHEL6Xen4Tutorial it was incredibly easy to follow!!
Jon
