Change an instances NIC

Hello,

I would like to change an instances nic from e1000 to vmxnet3 or even virtio, How can I do this?

Is there something I can add to the user_vm_details table?


Thanks

Adam

Adam,

Makes sure to test it thoroughly.

i.e. you can also change Settings tab of the Stopped VM (add details like
rootDiskController = pvscsi or nicAdapter=Vmxnet3 etc) - in case of VMware
no changes are actually in place after VM is booted (i.e it doesn't work
yet), in contrast to KVM, where new setting ARE being used/applied when you
boot a VM...
This is a way ti override whatever is implicit setting of the OS Type you
are using (what Ivan suggested).

Cheers
Andrija

Adam,

just change OS family to the Linux for templates, ISOs which use your VMs and restart VMs via stop/start.
