[Astlinux-users] When is '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules' created

[Michael K. <mic...@ip...>]

Hi All

Im just wondering when '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules’ is created. I have Astlinux in an OpenStack VM and the NIC assignments appear to be pretty random and Im concerned that they could change on a reboot.

I looked for this file but I could not find it:
12810-IPCPROD-SSFE1 kd # ls -la /etc/udev/rules.d/
total 24
drwxrwxr-x    1 root     root           120 Jul  5  2023 .
drwxrwxr-x    1 root     root            80 Jul  5  2023 ..
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         11589 Jul  5  2023 62-nut-usbups.rules
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           753 Jul  5  2023 dahdi.rules
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           185 Jul  5  2023 usbtty.rules
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           531 Jul  5  2023 xpp.rules

I thought this file was auto created as I usually have to delete it if I change NIC’s so wondering how it all works?
