Perhaps it's more of a Foreman/API limitation.
In Foreman I provision two interfaces, that in the Foreman UI at least, have an ordering.
Sometimes when they are provisioned in oVirt the "second" interface has a lower
MAC than the "first" interface and so the ordering in Foreman is different to
the ordering in oVIrt.
This breaks a bunch of stuff that relies on the networks being on specific interface
(eth0, eth1).

Hi,
Do I understand it correctly that:
-your OS uses PCI addresses to order NICSs?
-PCI addresses of NICs are in fact non-consistent between VMs?
So you boot VM1 (with NICs vNIC1 and vNIC2) and VM2 (vNIC3 and vNIC4) with same order in
eg. API (->GUI) and you sometimes see different PCI addresses (vNIC2 has higher PCI
address than
vNIC1; however vNIC3 has higher PCI address than vNIC4)? I am surprised about that…
BR,
Konstantin

Betreff: [ovirt-users] Re: NIC Ordering
I don't create the VMs directly in the UI but use the API with Foreman. If I change
the MACs on the NICs I have to go back and update Foreman as well.
My workaround today is unplug the NIC I want to be second, briefly power-up the VM so the
"first" NIC gets assigned a PCI address, shutdown and re-plug the
"second" NIC. On
power-up the "second" NIC will be assigned a later PCI address and so achieve
the ordering I want.
It's just fiddly and can only be done on first boot. I was hoping for a more elegant
solution that works when you have large numbers of VMs to provision.

I think it depends on the mac addresses.
If you see that the MAC addresses are not sequential, delete the NICs and recreate them in
the order you want them to be

Is there any way to enforce NIC ordering so the vNICs match the ordering in the Engine
UI?
I found this but not clear if it was ever implemented?
