I need to add a new NIC and configure it with an IP address so we can use AD authentication.
Therefore I add a new interface to the VCSA in vSphere client and configure it by copying "/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0" to "/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth1".
I than change the configuration of "/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth1" so it has the right IP address, and I make a symbolic link with "ln -s /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth1 /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth1" and restart the network (service network restart).
When the network is restarted, I lose my connection with the server.
Does anyone know how to solve the problem?
Thanks in advance!
