Hi
For long time I've been looking for proper support in ovirt for Open
vSwitch so I'm happy that it is moving in the right direction. However,
there seems to still be a dependency on a ovirtmgmt bridge and I'm
unable to move that to the OVN provider.
The hosting center where I rent hw instances has a bit special network
setup, so I have one physical network port with a /32 netmask and
point-to-point config to router. The physical port I connect to a ovs
bridge which has the public ip. Since ovirt always messes up the network
config when I've tried to let it have access to the network config for
the physical port, I've set eht0 and ovsbridge0 as hidden in vdsm.conf.
I then create a bridge for use with ovirt, with a private address. With
the OVN provider I am now able to import these into the engine and it
looks good. When creating a VM I can select that it will have a vNic on
my OVS bridge.
However, I can't start the VM as an exception is thrown in the log:

Looking at that section of code where the exception is thrown, I see
that it iterates over host networks to find required networks, which I
assume is ovirtmgmt. In the host network setup dialog I don't see any
networks at all but it lists ovirtmgmt as required. It also list the OVN
networks but these can't be statically assigned as they are added
dynamically when needed, which is fine.
I believe that I either need to remove ovirtmgmt network or configure
that it is provided by the OVN provider, but neither is possible.
Preferably it shouldn't be hardcoded which network is management and
mandatory but be possible to configure.

Subject: OVN Deep Dive for oVirt 4.1
Organizer: "Marcin Mirecki" <mmirecki(a)redhat.com>
Time: Wednesday, January 11, 2017, 4:00:00 PM - 5:00:00 PM GMT +01:00 Amsterdam, Berlin,

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
OVN (Open Virtual Networking) is a new network virtualization project that
brings virtual networking to Open vSwitch.
OVN is now availble to use as a tech preview in oVirt. It is made available
using the oVirt external network providers API, which allows using external
network management software inside environments managed by oVirt.
The integration with OVN will allow users to take advantage of native OVS
support for software defined networks.
The advantages of using OVN:
- ability to use large number of networks with no need for multiple host NICs
or VLAN use
- ability to set up new network without any changes to the physical infrastructure
- easier to maintain due to centralized management
- good traffic isolation due to Openflow rules
- improved performance over neutron OVS plugin
