<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">When one is setting up Hyper-V in a cluster arrangement the guests they must be setup in the cluster rather than on one of the nodes BEFORE the initial guest
OS load. It turns out the MAC presented to the OS changes when it is failed over to the other node if added to the cluster after the fact. Apparently this wasn’t an issue for Windows guests.

with your eth0, eth1, etc… configs. We saw this issue on RHEL5 and RHEL6 guests.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

I have double-checked my settings in virtualBox for the NIC and in the process of restarting the box, so I will see what happens.

<p class="MsoNormal">If you use virtio devices, don't the device names change? Perhaps that is just<br>
for HDDs, not NICs?<br>

Does virtualbox support virtio?<o:p></o:p></p>
