HP 3PAR Virtual Service Processor

Hello everyone,

I have a problem with my VSP which is running on vmware, in fact the VSP VM lose connection to HP 3PAR, because the name of its two interface card has been changed, I mean the eth0 become eth2 and the eth1 become eth3, and to changed you must edit the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules which is readonly file, and to change the readonly file you must be a sudoer user, the problem is that i don't have the root password or any sudoer user, so I hope that you give me an ansewer that can resolv this problems

Thank you.

Only a change on the vmware host may cause this. Maybe you can revert the changes on the host.

If not, IMHO the best solution is to re-deploy the VSP as a replacement system.

Hello everyone

I find the sollution, it was on the vmware net adapter, just change the mac of the net adapter to eth0 and eth1 mac address,

and the connetion will set up again.

Thanks

how do you access vsp in esxi macine to change names of eth0 an eth1, as I try but I get vsp menu only not command prompt ??

Hi amsteen,

Well, you are connected with a simple SP user,  you need to connect with root user in order to change names of the interfaces.
