Clone of a VM does not propogate network interfaces

[srudrago]

Hi,

I am looking for a help. When I am cloning a VM, I am seeing that network interfaces are not getting propogated to the new cloned VM. I am using B200 M2 blades.

I am cloning a VM with RHEL 6.3.

Appreciate any help on this.

Thanks,

Santhosh

Are you cloning the VM to a different host where the Port Groups may not exist, by chance?

Hi,

There is an issue with RHEL 6.3 OS while cloning. Following two steps have to be done before cloning a RHEL 6 VM.

1.    Remove “HWADDR” from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.

2.    Remove /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file.

Thanks,

Santhosh
