CentOS7，网卡名字，采用consistent network device naming，简单的说，网络的名字，已经不是以前的eth0，eth1，你装系统前，你根本就不知道他叫啥名字。
这样的命名，好处就是你机器重启，增加pci设备，不会导致原来的设备名称发生改变。如果我们通过grub，修改内核的方式，改变回到以前的网卡命名，这种方式在新的设备里，会出现很多问题，你会发现每次重启机器，网卡名字都是会改变，一直都是在不停的变化，让你疯掉。
所以最佳的办法，就是还是使用装系统的时候默认网卡是啥名字就是什么名字。那么对于cobbler来说，
cobbler system add \
--name=vm1 \
--hostname=vm1 \
--profile=CentOS7-x86_64 \
--interface=eth0 \
--mac=00:50:56:35:61:5C \
--ip-address=192.168.27.100 \
--subnet=255.255.255.0 \
--gateway=192.168.27.0 \
--static=1
你是必须指定网卡名字的。
我们可以考虑通过cobbler提供的snippet来解决这个问题。
目前cobbler提供 pre_install_network_config，还不能很好解决这个问题。
cd /var/lib/cobbler/snippets
mv pre_install_network_config pre_install_network_config.save
我们创建一个新的 pre_install_network_config
#if $getVar("system_name","") != ""
# Start pre_install_network_config generated code
#raw
# generic functions to be used later for discovering NICs

这样cobbler默认使用的sample.ks来安装centos 7.x，那么网卡名字，就会和系统默认是一致的。
上面的snippet是我同事 http://zhanguo1110.blog.51cto.com/5750817/1671442 写的。
