I think it is some script problem...
Try to modify
Step 1.
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-aliases
Modify
if [ ! -f /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/$device:$current ]; then
to
if [ ! -f /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-$device:$current ]; then
Step 2.
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:x
Add
DEVICE="eth0:x"
at the first line.
