issues accessing ip/ethernet after using virt clone to create kvm host
hi, I am trying to setup some kvm (centos guests running on fedora 15)to use as a test learning environment. I have made a network called network1 and have it setup not to hand out dhcp. I setup a centos vm and using virt-manager was able to get into the machine, setup ip settings (ip, gateway, dns etc) and it works great. I then clone the machine using virt clone and I boot the new machine.
The issue is that I cannot ssh into the machine without an ip address and it appears that virt-clone does not bring the ip address/ethernet information across. So I have no machine to ssh to. I don't want to use virt-viewer because I am at work using a remote machine and I can't download x server or vnc server. So is there a way to access a cloned machine that does not have an ip address without using virt-manager? Or on the other hand is there a way to specify an ip address when cloning a machine? again the cloning process does not seem to clone ip information. thanks in advance. |
Tried a virtual serial port?
The linux kernel allows you to connect the console to a serial port. Not sure if it's possible to configure your KVM to provide a virtual serial port and connect the linux console to it with a console=/dev/ttyS0 or something similar? Then it's a simple telnet connection to the host.
