PCI Slot changes for hot plugged devices after reboot/restart of VM

[saikrm04]

I am using cloudstack 4.15 +KVM and I noticed that after reboot of vm the PCI slot of hot plugged nic or disk changes for windows and linux systems. Is there any change need to be done to overcome this issue?

Hi @saikrm04,
Would you please post your detailed observations from inside the guest?
Let's see about the NIC first. Please also paste virsh dumpxml <id> on the host before vs after reboot of the guest.

Thanks
