Thanks for the logs!

So, I think in both cases, udev *is* using the 'path' rename policy. However, it seems that on *one* system, the kernel has a value for /sys/class/net/<iface>/phys_port_name, which results in the addition to the interface name.

Can you please run:

$ cat /sys/class/net/<iface>/phys_port_name

on each machine (with the correct interface name), and report back? Also, can you report the kernel versions (uname -r) from each machine?

My new suspicion is that you have a different/newer kernel on one machine, and that the network driver gained support for phys_port_name_show().
