Re: Renaming NIC name in CentOS 7

Thanks to everyone who responded. This led to some interesting reading and learning, but it hasn’t avoided the reboot.

I found this page on udev:
How to reload udev rules without reboot?<http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/39370/how-to-reload-udev-rules-without-reboot>
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/39370/how-to-reload-udev-rules-without-reboot

Sounds perfect for my question, but at least one server I tried all the suggestions on, it didn’t change anything. A reboot is a “magic sauce,” but it’s nice to know how to avoid this with servers. If I find another solution that works for me, I’ll post it.

All,

I am trying to understand better how you give an interface a more descriptive name and get it all working without a reboot, if possible.

I actually wrote a small tutorial on how to do just this.

I think you missed the "without a reboot" part.  :)

Supposedly you can restart udev and then networkservices
