Hi
My usecase is that I am setting up a lab to emulate a customers
production environment which has multiple vlans. As this is done in a
hosting environment where I don't have any control over the switches,
I've created virtual switches with OpenVSwitch which connects together a
couple of physical servers which are running virtual machines to emulate
their servers. Currently I'm running a few virtual machines created
manually with libvirt but looking for a more user friendly way of
handling them.
I'm not looking at managing the network setup from Ovirt, I just want it
to use the network that is present and create VM's there.
The tweaking that I did with 3.6 was to run the hosted-engine setup but
where it failed I put the right answer in the file so that it would skip
over that part. I got that far that it attempts to start the vm but as
it doesn't give right parameters to libvirt it fails to create a port on
the bridge.
I'm not having much luck with the 4.0 alpha though, this is a separate
machine that I set up for this testing but when I run hosted-engine
--deploy it just returns without any message. I did run the cleanup
script found at
http://www.ovirt.org/documentation/how-to/hosted-engine/
and rebooted in between but still no luck

Martin is right, but we should understand your usage of OpenVSwitch
first.
Do you intend to use it for networking of ovirt VMs? For something else?
How did you tweak "it" (ovirt? hosted engine? ovs?)
