VPS's acting weird after NIC change [message #20605]

Our servers onboard NIC was damaged. We disabled the onboard NIC and installed new NIC card.

eth0 = damaged and disabled
eth1 = New nic card

Since then VPS are acting weird.
Does openvz require eth0 as default NIC of eth1 or any other NIC is fine.

Can anyone suggest if this is NIC issue?

Thanks

/etc/vz/vz.conf contains the VE_ROUTE_SRC_DEV parameter which is "eth0" by default.
This parameter is used ONLY to get the source IP from it if you access a VE from the HN. If you experience the problem with exactly such connections, try to uncomment the parameter and set it to eth1.

If the "weirdness" persist, please, describe the problem in more detail? What command exactly should work but doesn't and what output it generates?

Thank you.

If your problem is solved - please, report it!
It's even more important than reporting the problem itself...

Right now the config is like
# The name of the device whose ip address will be used as source ip for VE.
# By default automatically assigned.
#VE_ROUTE_SRC_DEV="eth0"

so eth0 is hashed.
Problem I was facing is I could not SSH directly to VPS. But if I ssh to main HN and use VPS username/pass it drop me directly to the VPS area.

I rebooted the server and so far its working fine.
I will look if problem persist than hashout and replace eth0 to eth1

Thanks Smile
