Spoke too soon ---

Yes the NIC is now visible to the OS, but it is no longer trying to join the VM 
Network , and is instead trying to create a one-pg-3 (for network3) which does 
not exist on the ESXi hosts

I would assume this means it cannot create a virtual network on the ESX hosts, 
and using the dummy network definition adds the NIC on the already created 
virtual network

But as noted in previous comments - there is no ability to find the NIC with 
the dummy network defined

Hoping there is information about not being able to create the network in the 
ESXi hosts that could resolve this.

RESOLVED!!!

When setting up the networks, I was following some steps for DHCP that 
suggested using the Dummy driver for networking and vmware with dhcp

I removed the hosts from the cluster and re-added them , but defined the 
network as vmware and now it recognizes the network card!!

Hello again,

As noted below I can clone a windows VMDK - and buid it with an e1000 network 
card attached (screenshots showing the HW attached in vSphere attached)

I tried to modify the clone image to have the drivers from Intel(r) Pro 1000/MT 
on the file, but they don't install because they don't find the network card 
attached

See screen shots for what the network card looks like on a clean VM clone

Hello -

I found that the NIC definition goes into the onetemplate template settings 
that I am using and it is now adding the NIC to the hardware as e1000

However when the Windows VM boots - it does not see ANY hardware NIC's

I have tried the following steps


*         Removed NIC and RE-added via vSphere

*         Re-installed vmwaretools (it is already installed in the cloned VM, 
but couldn't hurt)

*         Removed NIC and Re-added it again via vSphere

Still no luck in finding the hardware NIC inside the VM - any one else 
experience this issue?

I tried to use this template to build a VM with a Network NIC -

Does this look correct for NIC assignment within VMware?

NAME="myvm-win"
CPU=1
MEMORY=512
DISK=[ IMAGE_ID=13 ]
NIC=[NETWORK_ID="1",MODEL="E1000"]

Has anyone else done NIC assignments with Windows Deployments in Vmware? I can 
get the Windows VM up and running ,  the NIC shows up in the settings (as 
flexible) with the sunstone GUI

But when I open the VM it has no NIC's inside of it? I choose the dummy network 
driver - maybe that's not what I needed?

So -

I configured a Virtual Network in OpenNebula GUI (sunstone) and it now adds NIC 
settings to the Windows VM

ethernet0.present = "true"
ethernet0.networkName = "VM Network"
ethernet0.connectionType = "bridged"
ethernet0.addressType = "static"
ethernet0.address = "02:00:c0:a8:fb:01"
ethernet0.checkMACAddress = "false"

But it does not set the

ethernet0.virtualDev ="{e1000|vmxnet3|flexible}" so the VM does not see any NICs

It works exactly like a physical server- if there is network visibility (same 
vlan or default bridge) the booted VM will get its address from DHCP. We use 
this configuration (thus ignoring the opennebula-assigned IP) in several 
customers' networks, especially when the VM cones from virtualization of user 
desktops.

I want to just assign the NIC and let the OS obtain an IP from DHCP instead, on 
system boot.

Still reading the documentation, but not seeing a method for it yet.

host a10-0-0-1 { hardware ethernet 02:00:0a:00:00:01; fixed address 10.0.0.1; }
host a10-0-0-2 { hardware ethernet 02:00:0a:00:00:02; fixed address 10.0.0.2; }
