[ovirt-users] Customized Network Setup?

[Charles Tassell]

Hi Petr,

   That looks to be exactly what I want to do, but when I try to set it 
up I get two error messages.  On the box running the hosted engine I get 
"Error while executing action HostSetupNetworks: Network is currently 
being used" and on the new box I'm trying to get to join the cluster I 
get "Cannot setup Networks. Operation can be performed only when Host 
status is Maintenance, Up, NonOperational."
