Hi all,
Yanir is right, the local vm.conf is just a cache of what was
retrieved from the engine.
I might be interesting to check what the configuration of the engine
VM shows when edited using the webadmin. Or enable debug logging [1]
for hosted engine and add the OVF dump we send there now and then (the
xml representation of the VM).
[1] See /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/agent-log.conf and change the
level for root logger to DEBUG
Best regards
Martin Sivak

If im not mistaken the values of vm.conf are repopulated from the
database ,
but i wouldn't recommend meddling with DB data.
maybe the network device wasn't set properly during the hosted engine setup
?
