[18:55] <nosleep77> hi guys, i'm trying to find a way to create a 2nd eth file (for ex ifcfg-eth1) if the instance has 2 nics. is there a way to automate this?
[19:24] <natorious> hi nosleep77.   Is it "ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.eth2" ?
[19:24] <natorious> thats what it is on gentoo anyways
[19:28] <nosleep77> natorious: no its centos 6.6
[19:31] <natorious> thats gonna be in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts then.  Is it for static or dhcp networking?
[19:35] <natorious> if this is specific to a cloud env too, you could remove the hwaddr and attr lines from your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ehtx and /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file after getting both interfaces working then take snaps in that cloud env to use
[19:41] <natorious> oh, looks like you can pass the network config via cloud-config to set that up for you too
[19:47] <natorious> though the datasource would need to support it to call apply_network.  Looks like OpenNebula, NoCloud and ConfigDrive support it
