RAC1 ifconfig returns eth4 and eth5

RAC2 returns eth6 and eth7

Tried:

cp /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-Auto_eth6 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth5

cp /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-Auto_eth7 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth4

vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth5 and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth4, changed name to NAME="Auto eth5" and NAME="Auto eth4" as RAC1's ifcfg file.and deleted UUID. Removed /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-Auto_eth6 and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-Auto_eth7.

Restarted network service.

ifconfig -a | grep eth

eth6     

eth7    

The name did not get changed.

Only change is from RAC2's network confiig window, the interface name changed from Auto eth7 to Auto eth4.

Howdy, Stranger!
