Hi Don,

One feasible way to manipulate host networks/nics is using `host_service.setup_networks()` function. You could refer to [1] and [2] for the official directive details. Hopefully it will be useful.

Regards,

Joey

I am having issue with adding network to host nic with python SDK. It works just fine using the portal GUI. I have the following:

bond0 that is setup as mode 4

bond0.120 that is attached to ovirtmgmt network

bond0.96 that I am trying to attach a new installed network called External.

Below is a code snippet of what I am trying to do:

hosts_service = connection.system_service().hosts_service()

    host = hosts_service.list(search='name=%s' % HOSTNAME)[0]

    host_service = hosts_service.host_service(host.id)

    hostnics_service = hosts_service.host_service(host.id).nics_service()

    n = None

    for n in hostnics_service.list():

        if n.name == 'bond0.96':

            n_id = n.id

            print("n is %s" % n_id)

    system_service = connection.system_service()

    networks_service = connection.system_service().networks_service()

    network = networks_service.list(

        search='name=External and datacenter=%s-local' % HOSTNAME) [0]

    print ("Network name is %s" % network.name)

    print ("Network id is %s" % network.id)

    net_attachments_service = host_service.network_attachments_service()

    net_attachment = net_attachments_service.add(

       types.NetworkAttachment(

           network=types.Network(id=network.id),

           host_nic=types.HostNic(name='bond0.96')

           ),

       ),

I will end up with an error of 

File "./add_host_py", line 193, in Add_External_network

    host_nic=types.HostNic(name='bond0.96')

  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/services.py", line 15441, in add

    self._check_fault(response)

  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 98, in _check_fault

    Service._raise_error(response, fault)

  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 71, in _raise_error

    raise Error(msg)

ovirtsdk4.Error: Fault reason is "Operation Failed". Fault detail is "[Cannot setup Networks. The attachment of network 'External' references vlan device 'bond0.96'. Network attachment cannot reference vlan device.]". HTTP response code is 400.

Can someone guide me on what I am doing wrong or not understanding with the NetworkAttachment Service?

Thanks

Don
