This is not related to order of NICs during VM start, because RHEV-M keep the MAC assignment and even PCI address assignment same over VM reboots. The real reason hidden somewhere deep in kernel/udev behaviour. We need to understand why 2 NICs with same MAC addresses and same PCI addresses may get different names (eth0/eth1) over machine reboot.
