TIP
Enter xm list to see the name of the virtual machine (vm_name).
3 Open the virtual machine configuration file located on virtualization host server
(/etc/xen/vm/vm_cfgfile, where vm_cfgfile is usually the same as
the name of the virtual machine).
4 Remove all parameters from the vif= line except the mac=mac_address param-
eter. Make sure to leave the single quotes.
For example, change the line
vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:55:24:21,model=pcnet,type=ioemu', ]
to
vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:55:24:21,type=netfront', ]
5 At the terminal, enter xm new vm_cfgfile to reference the virtual machine
in the Xen store so it is managed again.
6 Restart the virtual machine by using YaST > Virtualization > Virtual Machine
Manager.
You can also restart the virtual machine by using xm start vm_cfgfile,
but make sure to connect to it with a viewer.
The first time the virtual machine boots, you might see a message indicating that
new hardware was found. This message can be safely canceled.
