Upstream knows about this and the persistent net rules have been dropped since version 195 or so. We could do some workaround, but if you already have a persistent rule in the system, it should work like before, you maybe will need to disable the predictable rule with net.ifnames=0.
The other part is that I wouldn't like to support something that is unsupported, like persistent names/rules.
I had a 70-persistent-net.rules for this system just because I installed 13.1 parallel to 12.3 on the second Disk. Mostly I have to make a new Installation on new hardware. So maybe, I'm able to build my own 70-persistent-net.rules, but how long will this work, while persistent-net.rules are officially deprecatetd? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The generation of persistent rules is out, but the support is there. I've added the support for this so users can manually generate/create their own persistent rule and of course use them.
There 2 things need it to be done:
1. disable the predictable names using net.ifnames=0 at boot time. 2. generate your own persistent rule in /etc/udev/rules.d.
I don't want to brake up a academical dispute about the sense of using predictable names or alias names. From Solaris 11 I known how useful alias names like eth0 or net0 are. Especially if you are writing firewall rules with iptables -A INPUT -j DROP -i eth0 ... for several machines and each machine has another interface name, you get in trouble. Cluster-Rules with with interface dependent rules might get problems if you are unable to bring even names in the right enumeration. I'm able to give you more examples if you want, apart from this, that these name are wired. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
