Networking is not starting correctly due to ntp server is not reachable

Hi, I just rebooted my UCS-Master (UCS 4.4-7-958), but my networking did not start. It did not set a ipv6 default gateway.

I have a cuple of IPv6 Addresses on my Master, but the ipv6 default gateway was not set after a reboot. So I have to set it manualy.

A journalctl -u networking.service

gives the following output:

-- Reboot --

My /etc/network/interfaces looks like this:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback


auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 78.46.85.6
        netmask 255.255.255.224
        network 78.46.85.0
        broadcast 78.46.85.31
        gateway 78.46.85.1

iface eth0 inet6 static
        gateway fe80::1
# default
        address 2a01:4f8:120:130e::2
        netmask 64

        down ip -6 addr del 2a01:4f8:120:130e::7/64 dev eth0

Here some ucs variables, that are important for this issue.

I belive that there could be a problem as the Bind9 is not read when networking is starting (as there is no ipv6 deafult gateway at this moment) and /etc/resolv.conf uses the local bind9.

Anyone a suggestion of a working temporary solution? Setting /etc/hosts entries for the ntp servers?

Update to this, i rebooted an other machine, with comparable setup, the ntp servers could not be found like on gandalf, but, i get no: Failed to start Raise network interfaces..

Log looks like this:
