Cloud Articles, Linux, VMWare Fixing eth0 MAC Address After VMware Clone or Restore by Jeff Staten•January 20, 2014•6 Comments If you have been around VMWare long, then you have cloned, restored or otherwise copied a error no suitable device found no active connection or device virtual machine. When the copied virtual machine is created, it is given a different error no suitable device found no device found for connection 'system eth1' MAC address, which causes VMWare to see its network adapter as eth1. This will result in eth1 being assigned either error no suitable device found no device found for connection a DHCP address at boot if available or to use a self-assigned address if not. This article shows how to fix this problem using Linux, but whatever operating system you are using, the steps
Error No Suitable Device Found No Device Found For Connection 'system Eth0'
are similar. Bringing Up Interface Eth0: Error: No Suitable Device Found: No Device Found for Connection ‘System Eth0' The problem begins when, after cloning a virtual machine, the eth0 device cannot be found by the kernel. You will normally notice an error during boot similar to: "Bringing up Interface eth0: Error: No suitable device found: no device found for connection ‘System eth0'. Bringing up Interface eth0: Error: bringing up interface eth0 error no suitable device found No suitable device found: no device found for connection ‘System eth0' As I mentioned above, this is caused when the new virtual machine is created. VMware has assigned an ethernet adapter to the virtual machine with a different MAC address than what the source VM was using. This issue is fairly simple to resolve. Find the New MAC Address for Your Network Adapter There are many ways to find the new MAC address assigned to your network adapter. Since this is VMWare, you can simply edit your virtual machine in VMWare and look at the MAC Address assigned to "Network adapter 1". Or even simpler is to use ifcfg to list the adapters on the machine. In the example below, you can see that this example machine, (a clone of my quickbook server) couldn't find eth0 by MAC address and assumed it was eth1 and then picked up a DHCP address instead of using the configured address for eth0: ifconfig shows eth1 instead of eth0 Edit the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 File Edit the MAC address in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 With this information, grab the HWaddr, we will then edit the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file and change the HWADDR parameter to the MAC address that you found

Under some OSs (BSD, Solaris) you must have read access to the /dev/bpf* devices.
