[ale] nic names changed on boot twice now

[Jim Kinney via Ale]

Box runs centos 7. Was originally showing nics on pci bus slot 1 and
11. Installed new OS using those slots (so nics named enp1s0fX and
enp6sofX - X = 0, 1 for dual port devices). Finished install. rebooted.
All worked. Updated and rebooted. All worked. Rebooted again after
setting up DHCPD. Nics now show up in slots 1 and 6.

W. T. F.

Case was not opened.





Reconfiged networkifcfg-foo files to use new names. Restarted
networking and firewalls and mounts, etc. All worked. Happily went
home.

Box was forcibly rebooted early this morning. Suspect is a power issue.
Booted it back up. Now nics back in slots 1 and 11.

!?!?!?!?!?! Failing CPU ???

Yes, Halloween is tomorrow. Yes, this is a Frankentein box. But,
really, it's acting like one CPU just punted counting slots but dropped
no errors anywhere. Intel system for the curious.

I had an issue once where the MAC addresses in the sysconfig interface scripts were also in udev config files so it was greatly confused whenever it restarted networking. Fixing the udev settings to match the names in the sysconfig scripts solved my problems. I don’t recall if that was RHEL6 or RHEL7 but it can’t hurt to check udev to see if anything is there.

own tail. It won't fatten the dog.

Ah. hwdb update seems to have made a difference. Will reboot a few more
times in the next day or so getting the network proximity drive
decryption working.
There was a point in the install where the old stuff was reused. I
thought it was totally overwritten but apparently not.
