[Users] Keepalived on oVirt Hosts has engine networking issues

Hi,

My workaround was successful, although I'm not sure if it should be
reported as a bug.

Running keepalived will show the floating IP address as the "IP for the
interface" and mess with the configs within ovirt-engine (even though it's
manually configured to be something else). I assume this is because of `ip
a`

Live migrations had an issue where it'd be trying to "destination is same
as source", but I'm unsure of the logic behind that. Didn't have time to
dig deeper as the issue cleared once I moved the keepalived service to a
different interface which wasn't used for migration.

Andrew.
