NIC enumeration ignoring udev rules on HPC Solution

Issue

• After applying udev rules (https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-17338) on a system with kusu (pcm) installed, NIC enumeration is not obeying the udev rules.  Rather 'tmp' interfaces like the following are being enumerated:

  dev7498   Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr B4:99:BA:YY:YY:YY  
  dev11351  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr B4:99:BA:XX:XX:XX
  

• Loss of network connectivity across intefaces that have udev rules

• On boot, the HWADDR directive is being appended to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX files:

  # HWADDR=B4:99:BA:XX:XX:XX
  HWADDR=B4:99:BA:XX:XX:XX
