*SOLVED* getting rid of venet0 - just physical interfaces [message #1489]

Hi,

I've sucessfully added my hosts eth1 to my (only) vps with --netdev_add.

By removing the IP_ADDRESS line in the vps config file, I also got rid of venet0:0 - now how do I get rid of venet0 both on the host and the vps?

I don't want/need the interface at all, because I don't want the connection between the physical and the virtual machine (even though the interface is down).

Any hints on how to do this?

Regards,

Mephisto

You need to comment out network setup in /etc/init.d/vz:

sed -i 's/$.*setup_net$$/#\1/' /etc/init.d/vz
/etc/init.d/vz restart

If you don't want restart service vz, then:
stop your VPSs,
ifconfig down venet0,
rmmod vznetdev
