Hi, During hosted engine setup I faced issues with network configuration on my CentOS 6.5 hosts: My network setup was the following which doesn't work with hosted engine setup: - eth0.200 (VLAN tag 200) should become ovirtmgmt interface - GATEWAY is in /etc/sysconfig/network and not in ifcfg-eth0.200 The following errors occured: 014-02-25 15:42:31 INFO otopi.plugins.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.network.bridge bridge._misc:189 Configuring the management bridge 2014-02-25 15:42:31 DEBUG otopi.plugins.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.network.bridge bridge._misc:198 getVdsCaps for eth0: {'addr': '', 'cfg': {'DEVICE': 'eth0', 'PEERDNS': 'no', 'NM_CONTROLLED': 'no', 'BOOTPROTO': 'none', 'HWADDR': '00:25:9 0:75:87:C2', 'ONBOOT': 'yes'}, 'ipv6addrs': ['fe80::225:90ff:fe75:87c2/64'], 'mtu': '1500', 'netmask': '', 'hwaddr': '00:25:90:75:87:c2', 'speed': 1000} 2014-02-25 15:42:31 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:152 method exception Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/otopi/context.py", line 142, in _executeMethod method['method']() File "/usr/share/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/scripts/../plugins/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/network/bridge.py", line 231, in _misc 'gateway=%s' % caps['cfg']['GATEWAY'], KeyError: 'GATEWAY' This can be solved by setting GATEWAY in ifcfg-eth* file instead of /etc/sysconfig/network Next, VLAN tagged interfaces don't work: 2014-02-25 15:35:20 INFO otopi.plugins.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.network.bridge bridge._misc:189 Configuring the management bridge 2014-02-25 15:35:20 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:152 method exception Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/otopi/context.py", line 142, in _executeMethod method['method']() File "/usr/share/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/scripts/../plugins/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/network/bridge.py", line 194, in _misc ].s.getVdsCapabilities()['info']['nics'][nics] KeyError: 'eth0.200' So I had to do the following: - Set switch port to untagged for this VLAN - Configure eth0 instead of eth0.200 - Run hosted engine setup - Configure VLAN for ovirtmgmt in oVirt (which surprisingly worked for an active interface) - Configure VLAN tagging on hosts - Reconfigure switch ports - Sync networks in oVirt network setup tab As this was a real pain to do I would love to see support for VLAN tagging in hosted engine setup :) Shall I open bug reports for these 2 issues or are they already known? -- Best Regards René Koch Senior Solution Architect ============================================ LIS-Linuxland GmbH Brünner Straße 163, A-1210 Vienna Phone: +43 1 236 91 60 Mobile: +43 660 / 512 21 31 E-Mail: rkoch@linuxland.at ============================================
