Hi Yedidyah,
Thank you for you update.
This platform started with 4.3 deployment.
The Default mac address pool, apparently on all Clusters (5) is:
from_mac | to_mac
-------------------+-------------------
56:6f:ef:88:00:00 | 56:6f:ef:88:ff:ff
Interestingly enough, I am alos not able to add another mac pool to Default. I can only
create new one, let's say MacPool2 and also create only single pool inside. Option to
add second mac range under same name is grayed out, whether I login as SuperUser or Admin
to Aministration Portal.
Never mind, it is as so, but I am still not "happiest" with:
Question2: Would there be an harming effect on existing VMs if the
default mac pool would be changed?
=> I am pretty certain it's harmless, but didn't try that
myself.
Reason is that I have 600VMs on 5 cluster setup in production - If I make the change
where currently required and we are wrong, its going to affect almost half of those
existing VMs. I did test the change on the staging, and it did not seem to have any
harmful effect but that one has like 5VMs atm.
I will run some additional tests on staging to see if I can get more comfortable before
making change in production, but if anyone else can contribute boosting the confidence,
please let me know.

Dear oVirt,
While investigating and DHCP & DDNS collision issues between two VM servers from
different oVirt clusters, I noticed that oVirt assigns same default MAC range for each of
it’s managed clusters.
Is this a new 4.3 setup, or upgraded from earlier versions?

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1516445
Fixed in 4.3 (and backported to 4.2.7), only for new setups. The
default changed several times in versions before these, and upgrades
do not change the stored default.
What's your default mac pool in each engine? You can get it with:
/usr/share/ovirt-engine/dbscripts/engine-psql.sh -c "select from_mac,
to_mac from mac_pools, mac_pool_ranges where id=mac_pool_id and
default_pool='t'"
Or by checking admin ui - Administration -> Configure, there "MAC
Address Pools", and double click Default.
Question1: Does oVirt-Engine keep separate place in DB or … for MAC addresses assigned
per cluster or it keeps them all in same place?
By *default*, all in same place, and above bug (and patches linked
from it) describe the current specifics. This changed several times
along the versions before these.
You can manually configure it, including to be per cluster - search
for "MAC Address Pools" here:

I am pretty certain it's harmless, but didn't try that myself.
