Hi,
* The mockups/UI is missing the "Cluster --> Manage networks" screen which
should present the selection of a network as a management network. That ability should
probably be behave as migration and display role (i.e. radio button).
A network has a status field in the context a cluster: A new required network is added as
'non-operational', and will change its status to 'operational' when it is
configured on all of the cluster's hosts.
If the network is added as 'not required', it will automatically be set as
'operational'.
Setting the network status on cluster level as 'operational' is determined and not
reversal.
* The introduction is aimed to the first user-flow:
"* Appointing a network as the management network will make the network required in
the given cluster. " - should block 'non-operational' networks or 'non
required' networks from being selected as a management network, and also block any
attempt to mark a management network as non-required.
* network labels aspect:
** if a labelled network is marked as a management network, removing the label should not
remove that network from the hosts (if labelled).
** "Moving a host from a cluster to another one." - if a management network on
cluster A is configured on host, but not attached to cluster B, and that network is
management on the host by label, changing the cluster will remove it from the host, which
will targeted in a host without a management cluster. This should be blocked to avoid
loosing connectivity.

Moti

Subject: Management network as a role - design proposal
Hi All,
The proposed feature will allow defining an arbitrary network in the DC as
the management network for the cluster, which in its turn will allow
assigning different VLANs for the management networks in the same DC.
Feature page can be found here -
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Management_Network_As_A_Role .
Please take a look into the page especially into "Open issues" section.
I'd
like to have your opinions on that.
Best regards,
Yevgeny Zaspitsky
