Failed to initialize ethernet0 in the VM

[uramsi01]

We have cluster of 10 servers in which we have created various VDI's. Suddenly during automigration when the VM moves from one server to other server the IP address is getting to 0.0.0.0 and the VM shows that network is disconnected. In the event viewer I also have an info message stating that "Failed to initialize ethernet0".

Again when I manually move this VM back to the orignal host the IP is coming back.

Not sure what is the issue.

It was a switch port problem. There was a mismatch in the number of ports configured in various hosts & that's the reason the vM's were not getting the ip.

It's good to see communities users who actually come back and post the fix - well done. A lot of people don't, so they're original post can be frustrating for others hitting the same error!
