Hi AFAIK This is more a CentOS- than an oVirt-issue. CentOS behaves identically on vSphere. If I remember correctly, this is due to the fact that the MAC-address of the virtual NIC has to change, when you create a VM from a template. CentOS however keeps the MAC address of the template and just adds the new MAC, which then of course becomes eth1. --SMG ----- Original Message -----

Hello,
I have an ovirt cluster which runs CentOS VM. I have a template to create VM. On this template, there are two interfaces, eth0 and eth1. When I create a VM using this template, the new interfaces are named eth2 and eth3. It can be pretty annoying and I would like to know if it would be possible to always start by eth0 ?
If I remember the discussion on IRC, it would be necessary to clean old udev rules (in centos it seems to be /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules)
Thanks, Regards, Grégoire _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
