Hi,

Every time my domU is created, the eth* number increases, from eth0 to eth70 
now.
This is really awkward, and should not happen in theroy, nevertheless I don't 
know why.
Can anyone identify the problem here?

 It's due to udev persistent net generation rules, you cat dieable then by 
deleteing
/etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules
also remove all previously generated interface names by deleting
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

or alternatively use static mac in VM config vif statement, then you only need to remove /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules once



Thanks in advance,

Shawn
