You can now discard this thread !!!
Prior to creating this thread, I also tried to copy the networks from another functioning
host thinking that might be needed. Did not get any errors for the copy function, but the
networks were not copied.
That's when started this thread.
Since then, I said, "fck it" and decided to try something while waiting for
help.
I manually added the networks to the rebuilt host. Suddenly (and apparently magically) it
is now in Up state.
