Hi Ciro,

When upgrading your dom-0 you have to addapt your startup file for your
clients:

On openSUSE_10.3
vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:00,bridge=xenbr0',
'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:01,bridge=xenbr1',
'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:02,bridge=xenbr2', ]

On openSuSE_11.0:
vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:00,bridge=eth0',
'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:01,bridge=eth1',
'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:02,bridge=eth2', ]

Currently (openSUSE_11.1 & SLE_11
vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:00,bridge=br0',
'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:01,bridge=br1',
'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:02,bridge=br2', ]

If your dom-U's only have one network interface, you can use:
vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:10:01:00']

The name of the bridge devices they are using in 'the current release'
can be examined with: "brctl show" commando
