I'd even say this feature is limited to host level of 3.1, not cluster level? the only item which would be a DC level is changing MTU, since it should affect all hosts in the DC using that logical network. as for MTU max value - I agree we need to check if there is a way to validate it across all hosts, but I'm pretty sure a config based validation for min/max mtu sizes is needed. then a host could fail the change if the MTU isn't supported by it.

while MTU is relevant in this verb to setup networks, the change of the MTU itself as at logical network at DC level, so it needs a flow for handling a change across all hosts? _______________________________________________ Engine-devel mailing list Engine-devel(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/engine-devel
