The NIC of the vmware cloned Centos6.X VM cannot be started.
You can quickly create a linux Virtual Machine with CentOS 6.4 by using the full cloning function of vmware8. Symptoms after creation: ifconfig is used after startup, and no IP address is found. Only the loopback address is 127.0.0.1, And the MAC address and host name are the same as those of the source host (the source host uses the IP address configured manually ). No matter how you execute the following command, it does not help:/etc/init. d/network restartifup eth0 solution: 1. edit the eth0 configuration file: vi/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0, delete the row of the HWADDR address and UUID as follows: HWADDR = 00: 0c: 29: 08: 28: 9 fUUID = cee39dbb-6a10-4425-9daf-768b6e79a9c9 tip: Of course you can also modify according to the actual HWADDR and UUID without deleting. See/etc/udev/rules. d/70-persistent-net.rules after modifying the eth0 Nic file: [root @ oldboy ~] # Cat/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0DEVICE = eth0TYPE = EthernetONBOOT = yesNM_CONTROLLED = yesBOOTPROTO = noneIPADDR = mask = 255.255.255.0DNS2 = 8.8.8.8GATEWAY = mask = noUSERCTL = no 2. clear the following files if necessary:>/etc/udev/rules. d/70-persistent-net.rules. Tip: You can choose not to change the machine name. 3. restart the system: reboot or restart outside the VM. 4. Cause prediction: VM cloning is a protection policy designed to protect source and clone machines from network configuration address conflicts.
