Hi Sigurður<br>
<br>
</font>Thanks for dropping me that mail. about your issues:<br>
<br>
1. Dynamically changing the disk size you requested is not
supported, however you can chose to create your disk<br>
as "thin provisioning" with a size bigger than what you currently
need, say 80Gb. The amount of space that will be used is only 1Gb
and it'll grow with your usage.<br>
<br>
2. you network scenario is correct and we addressed just that in 3.1
and its called "setup networks"
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Features/Design/Network">http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Features/Design/Network</a> .<br>
you can get it working with the latest ovirt builds.<br>
<br>
For further help - ovirt is an open source project and as one we run
mailing lists for users,contributers, developers to have their
questions and discussions. all getting attention.<br>
Also we have a chat room where you can get immediate (almost :) )
response. all the details here -
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.ovirt.org/project/community/">http://www.ovirt.org/project/community/</a><br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>
