Hi !
Since last version 4 upgrade eve-ng-pro often looses its pnet0 interface, sometimes I can regain it with reboot, sometimes I need to redo the mgmt-IP setup.
It also sometimes looses the eth0 on booting qemu-nodes.
setup is on ESXi 6.5
Any ideas what is happening ?
Also after reboot , and i cannot close the labs without access via pnet0, the labs are giving constant errors and I can neither close them or do anything.
I am quite disssatisfied with that behaviour now.
Regards
Alexander

Something is not ok with your upgrade..
Probably you did it when labs were running.
Well,

try to do :
apt install reinstall eve-ng-pro

MAKE sure all is stopped when you do any of eve upgrades

I have a similar problem but on a new bare metal Dell R640. Just performed the upgrade to version 4 (paid for the PRO version), on reboot I lost all networking and had to get in via iDRAC. Need to figure out how to restore network access now. This software can be great, and a major headache at the same time.

It is not new issue, when network is lost, simply is missed some step during upgrade

The issue is the new 5.3.0 kernel does not have a module for my Broadcom BCM57414 NetXtreme-E 10G/25G NIC, therefore no eth0. Rebooted back to the old 4.20 kernel and eth0 is available again. kernel 4.20 has module bnxt_en.ko available in /lib/modules/, kernel 5.3.0 does not. I'll stay on the old kernel for now until this is resolved in the new kernel.

EVE is not using Kernel 5
EVE kernel is:
root@eve-ng:~# uname -r
4.20.17.2-eve-ng-uksm-wg+
