I hate to cause extra work, but a return to the old persistent-net-generator behavior for the ibmveth devices would be the ideal solution due to the consistency of behavior with the older releases. It is what the users are used to, and what we were planning on documenting as a workaround for this problem (lock down the install device name with a manually configured udev rule in /etc) if we couldn't get it officially resolved

I would hope that a stripped down version of the old persistent-net-generator behavior that just applies to the ibmveth devices should hopefully not be that brittle (since the target device is fairly consistent).

Pradeep,

What are your thoughts in this area?
