Hi Adeel, You need to tidy up the first source VM before you create a template from this – it will most likely still have udev rules and hard coded MAC addresses still in it. This means when the first VM is created from the template the networking can’t find the NICs which were in the original VM and networking fails.

First machine acts both as management server and as hypervisor (kvm). My second machine acts only as hypervisor(kvm). I first created a VM, say vm1, from centOS ISO and added some software that I need new VM's to have. I, then, created a template, say t1, from vm1 so that I can create new VMs using this template. But when I created a new VM say vm2 from t1 , it does not assume any IP address for eth0 interface. It only has loopback interface address. The reason seems to be ifcfg-eth0 file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripsts/ directory. This file is exactly the same in vm1 and vm2 including HWADDR and UUID entries. I presume this is the reason vm2 is not being able to get an IP address. Any Suggestions? Am I doing it wrong way?
