Hi All,

I am running into a strange issue:

My environment is  
Hypervisor = Hyper-V 2012  
OS Version = SLES 11 P2  
Installed newest patch of integration services as well.

When I add any network adaptor, i.e. legacy or otherwise, and turn on the suse VM, i am missing the eth’x’.  
I can fix it by running rm /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.

I wanted to know if there is an issue with Hyper-v or Suse server?  
Has anyone come across this issue before?

Regards

What’s the output (in the VM) of “lspci”?

That should tell us if the network card is detected or not.
