There's two checkboxes in the setup networks dialog: 1) save network configuration - This only means that if the change was successful, persist the final networking state so that when the host is rebooted, it is booted into the network state *after* the (successful) networking change 2) check connctivity - After the network operation, verify that the engine still has connectivity to the host. If so, commit the change. Otherwise roll it back.
The "save network configuration" check box shouldn't change the outcome of the result.

It is a good pointer, it is working. I'm not sure this is a dumb error from a new user. When I change the network configuration on the first system, I checked the "save network configuration". It didnt' work and dropped the connection to the system. 1. I had both systems in maintenance mode 2. from "hosts", picked one of the system, "setup host networks" 3. Right clicked on eth1, "Remove eth0 from Bond" 4. at this point, ovirtmgmt was on the right hand side listed as "Unassigned Logical networks" 5. I dragged it back to assign it to eth0 6. checked save network configuration 6. clicked OK and connection is dropped Odd... ON the console, I saw the followings bonding: unable to remove non-existent slave eth0 for bond bond0. bonding: unable to remove non-existent slave eth1 for bond bond0. `/etc/init.d/network restart` and I got bond0 back. I redo the whole process without "save network configuration" and it worked fine. I did this on the 2nd system and it worked fine also.

I'd say: - Move the host to maintanence, so it runs no VMs and does not play SPM role. - Use the Setup Network dialog to brake the bond and define ovirtmgmt directly on top of eth0. The Engine/Vdsm connection should survive this kind of change (unlike a change of management address or vlan). If the host uses a special storage domain, or is not SPM, you could even do that while VMs are running. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
