Hi,
I wanted to migrate an openSUSE 11 from a physical server into a VE.
I did read some articles about "Physical to container" and "OpenSUSE template creation".
Then I copied everything from the physical server into /vz/private/XXXX, created a /etc/vz/conf/XXXX.conf with parameter IP_ADDRESS in it (here XXXX is my VEID).
And I disabled the VE's udev, created several necessary devices in /dev using mknod, modified /etc/fstab, linked /proc/mounts to /etc/mtab ... and so on.

By far, every is fine except network doen't work. I can't ping from or into the VE.

When I do a "ifconfig" inside the VE, nothing retrieved.
While when I do a "ifconfig -a", the result shows as below.
-------------------------------
# ifconfig -a

So, can anyone help me or give a tip please?
Thank you.

Hello.

Please, check latest 2.6.18-x kernel based on RHEL5 kernel. If it works, please, report back and file a bug for 2.6.24, in that case i guess that will be a known problem and we'll fix it quickly.

Thanks you.

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

I have not tried it yet.
But I modified some settings in the VE-opensuse11, it just worked.
So it's not a bug.

Thank you for helping me.

Hi.
Could you please post here what exactly did you modify to make it working? This might help other people in case they face the same issue.

Thank you.

Hello,

If you have the time or inclination I would like to know what you configured in the VE to get the networking to work. I am running into the same problem with both veth and venet

Thanks
