How create a virtual machine from a previously cloned template on Oracle VM 3.0.3: step 3

Step 1 is here;
Step 2 is here;

Now we have to modify /etc/sysconfig/network file




writing the right hostname for our machine. The template hostname is changed

with the following hostname.

We are ready to start our network service, aren't we ?



We have an error, quite explicative: Device eth0 has different MAC address than expected, ignoring
Of course I have forget to create a new MAC address for my machine. So click on Tools and then "Vnic Manager" from VM Manager interface




and let it generate a valid new MAC address or just choose one available.

Now open again the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file



and modify the HWADDR entry


with your new MAC address

Let's start our network service again. It works.

And I'm able to ping my new machine from my local pc

Type reboot and let see if all goes up

Ok. Also the hostname is right as expected.
