Hello SmartOS users,

We’ve encountered a problem, where NICs inside a guest KVM OS got renamed after 
a system update.

We are using RHEL/CentOS VMs and also provide some CentOS images. The recent 
7.4 (1708) release of RHEL/CentOS includes an updated version of the cloud-init 
package, which renames NICs according to the nics.*.interface property, which 
is all right. However, the previous version of RHEL/CentOS included cloud-init 
0.7.5 (officially released 2014-04-01), which ignored the nics.*.interface 
property and NICs were named eth<id>. The latest version of RHEL/CentOS has 
cloud-init 0.7.9 (released 2016-12-23). The SmartOS-related change happened in 
version 0.7.7 (released 2016-08-10).

For all Danube Cloud users - the problem and fix is described here:

 We are sorry for any troubles caused by this issue.
