[Engine-devel] Questions on NIC hotplug (http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Features/Design/DetailedHotlugNic)

1. I wasn't sure from the description, but can one change the Network to which a NIC is connected to when it's up? (looks like a much lighter and reasonable action than unplugging-changing-plugging. Also very easy to do in the physical world). I'm quite sure there's a request for such a feature. 2. The REST API usage of 'activate' and 'deactivate' is certainly not inline with the UI's terminology, which is not only a shame, but is also (to me) confusing with setting the NIC's link up/down (which is possible in QEMU, not sure if we do it in oVirt). the UI concept of arrows also seem to support 'up'/'down' ... 3. Donno if it's just the mock ups, but lets try to use 'Network Card' over 'NIC' where possible. 4. I'm not sure why do we need the 'plug' and 'unplug' buttons, and can't do it in the 'Edit' dialog box. I think it's confusing. 5. How do I create a non-plugged NIC via the API? How do I see if a VM's NIC is plugged or not via the API? 6. SDK example would be great too.
