Sorry, incomplete message sent...
today I had a problem about conflicting MAC between two different VMs.
The source of the problem was a VM created on env1 managed by engine1 and then transferred some weeks ago to env2 managed by engine2.
The two envs share some networks and during migration I didn't change the mac of the vnic after completing it.
So the mac was left free from env1 and used in env2.
The default mac pools are different ones between env1 and env2.
So today in env1 I created a new vm on the same vlan as the previous one and oVirt assigned the previous one mac, now freed on it, originating big problems...
I found an article (https://access.redhat.com/solutions/695383) to search in the engine web admin by mac, but it was for version 3.2 and it seems it doesn't work in 4.4.10.
In VMs page I search filling the query with

mac = my_mac
or
Vms: mac = my_mac
but it keeps thinking with 3 squares blinking in the page. I have not so many VMs to justify time elapsing... (less then 50)
Can I search for mac? How?
Thanks,
Gianluca
