[libvirt-users] ifname in openvz container
Hi!
Is there any way to specify ethernet device name to be created inside
the openvz container?
I could find such info at http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsNICS.
If I do as below I get br0 as ethernet device inside VM whereas I'd like
it to be eth0.
$ cat ovz.xml
<domain type='openvz' id='144'>
<name>144</name>
<uuid>0071c128-58b4-4688-be17-1e062a22b36c</uuid>
<vcpu>1</vcpu>
<memory>524288</memory>
<os>
<type>exe</type>
<init>/sbin/init</init>
</os>
<devices>
<filesystem type='template'>
<source name='centos-5-x86'/>
<target dir='/'/>
</filesystem>
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='br0'/>
</interface>
</devices>
</domain>
$ virsh create ovz.xml
Domain 144 created from ovz.xml
$ grep -i netif /etc/vz/conf/144.conf
NETIF="ifname=br0,bridge=br0,mac=52:54:00:74:DD:F3,host_ifname=veth144.0,host_mac=52:54:00:06:78:76"
br0 is a bridge on the server (CT0). But I would like to assign ethernet
device inside VM as eth0 i.e. ifname in VM config has to be eth0.
ovzkernel release is 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5.028stab081.1
OS is CentOS 5.5, libvirt/virsh version is 0.8.8.
Best regards,
Nikolay.
