Macvlan not working after changing network card

General
1

Good day,

I have an debian 10 with docker installed.
for management i use portainer.

my physical server is replaced with a new one. new version of vmware. and the only problem during the migration was the network cards.
i ended up by deleting all network interfaces and added new ones.
this works fine for everything. i can reach any server. no problem. however the dockers loses theire network.
i removed the macvlan network and re-created it. no errors at all. but still no traffic from/to the containers.

the host network card still has the same name (ens160) only the mac adres changed. (there is a bug in vmware 7.0U3 so even if i know the old mac. it is not possible to use it)
