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 ----- > From: "gregoire leroy" <gregoire.le...@retenodus.net> > To: users@ovirt.org > Sent: Tuesday, July 30, 2013 7:59:35 AM > Subject: [Users] Nic names : always start by eth0 > > Hello, > > I have an ovirt cluster which runs CentOS VM.
