Upgraded PVE from 8.4 to 9.2 - Networking not consistent

[bbx1_]

Hello, I've upgrade my small PVE cluster from 8.4 to 9.2.3 and I've noticed that the network settings on the PVE hosts (3) are not consistent in terms of interfaces.

IE:
pve-manager/9.2.3/d0fde103346cf89a
Linux 7.0.6-2-pve (2026-05-29T11:08Z)

Node1 & 2:



Node 3:




As you can see, Node 1&2 have the new NIC interfaces while node #3 does not. All upgrades look to have been completed without any issues.

Is there any reason as to why I'm not seeing the new NIC interfaces on my PVE node #3?

Hi @bbx1_

thanks for posting in the forum!

The new configuration on the nodes 1 and 2 stems from the pinned network interfaces names, probably generated by the pve-network-interface-pinning tool.
You can always manually generate the config on node 3 by using pve-network-interface-pinning generate. Please have a look at the documentation [1] under "Naming conventions" -> "Overriding Network Device Names".

Yours sincerely
Jonas
