[ovirt-users] Real Noob question- setting a static IP on host

I am incredibly sorry over this noob question but I am really bashing my head trying to simply change an IP address on an Ovirt host.  oVirt was pushed to this host through the server web interface.  It is running on top of Centos 7.

From the docs it says to log into the host and edit the ifcfg-ovirtmgmt file and I have done and here are the latest settings:

#Generated by VDSM version 4.19.28-1.e17.centos
DEVICE:ovirtmgmt
TYPE:Bridge
DELAY=0
STP=off
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
MTU=1500
DEFROUTE=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=no
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
IPADDR=10.0.0.226
GATEWAY=10.0.0.1
PREFIX=13
DNS1=10.0.0.9
DNS2=8.8.8.8

The server can reach everything on the network fine.  Although it cannot be reached through the oVirt web interface and the host is in a “connecting” status.  In the oVirt web interface if I attempt to edit the NIC settings from DHCP to Static to reflect the changes Ive made above I run into this error:


  *   Cannot setup Networks. Another Setup Networks or Host Refresh process in progress on the host. Please try later.

What is the correct procedure to change a host management IP from DHCP to STATIC?  Should I make these changes manually on the host or through the NIC settings in the oVirt web interface (when I tried this it just seemed to hang..)

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!


Alex
