I have 300+ VMs of ubuntu build on from one ova. On vm there are 5 network adapters. I need from inside vm rename them regarding to VMware ESX order.

For example naming in different scenarios:

  • first = eth1, second = eth2, third = em0, etc
  • first = em0, second = em9, third = br0, etc
  • first = phys1, second = phys2, third = eth0, etc.

ubuntu vm 5 network adapters

My problem is that lspci|grep "Ethernet controller" don't show them ordered:

04:00.0 Ethernet controller: VMware VMXNET3 Ethernet Controller (rev 01)
0b:00.0 Ethernet controller: VMware VMXNET3 Ethernet Controller (rev 01)
0c:00.0 Ethernet controller: VMware VMXNET3 Ethernet Controller (rev 01)
13:00.0 Ethernet controller: VMware VMXNET3 Ethernet Controller (rev 01)
1b:00.0 Ethernet controller: VMware VMXNET3 Ethernet Controller (rev 01)

04:00.0 should be eth1 but it's eth4 -- I compared by macs

it's really order: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", KERNELS=="0000:0b:00.0", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", NAME="eth1"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", KERNELS=="0000:13:00.0", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", NAME="eth2"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", KERNELS=="0000:1b:00.0", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", NAME="eth3"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", KERNELS=="0000:04:00.0", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", NAME="eth4"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", KERNELS=="0000:0c:00.0", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", NAME="eth5"

This is information from ubuntu vm on ESXi:
