| Doc Text: |
Previously, when a network interface controller (NIC) was plugged into or unplugged in a running virtual machine with 4 or more gigabytes of virtual memory, a "Device '[device_name]' could not be initialized" error displayed. This is now fixed and plugging or unplugging an NIC in a running virtual machine with 4 or more gigabytes of the virtual memory works as expected.

When running a virtual machine with 4 or more gigabytes of the virtual memory, an attempt to hot plug a network interface controller (NIC) failed with the following error message:
Device '[device_name]' could not be initialized
This update resolves this issue, and hot-plugging a NIC in a virtual machine with 4 or more gigabytes of the virtual memory no longer fails.
