Nic is not recognized by the VM (udev rules)

[TomerAdmon]

STR:

1. deploy an P2P scenario with CentOS machines
2. ssh into one of the machines and execute ifconfig -a

result:
the Vlan network is not configured as nic on the machine

this is probably since the machine should be restarted or NICs should be refrashed after an nix is added to a machine from the OpenStack AIP or from horizon.

the main problem here is that a user is usual to deploy machines with few networks form Horizon and all the networks will be configured since they attached when the machine is created. When a machine is configured form CloudShell, the machine will be powered on first and then connectivity process will attach a NIC but nothing refresh the NIC's on the VM to update the connectivity on the OS level.

Conclusions:

• We would like to add an attribute called "Auto udev" that will be a user input and will be true by default on the app. The attribute description will be "Configure Linux udev rules to allow new interfaces to be recognized by the OS automatically. When using Windows machines this attribute should be set to false."

• App that will have this the "Auto udev" attribute set to True will execute a user-data script during the deployment that refreshes the udev rules so new interfaces that were added in the Sandbox will be added in the OS level.

• We need documentation for the user-data script we are executing

Concern: What will happen if this user-data script will be executed on Windows machines?
