:) but when I'm in the engine, I can click on the node, and see that it's up. I can click on network interfaces, and see that one is up, and the other are down. I can create networks on the engine, and I can assign the nodes interfaces to those networks, but for the life of me, I can't figure out where I assign an IP to the nodes interfaces!! Surely, the place to do that would be under the "Host" tab, yet it doesn't seem to be there...
Host Tab -> Network Interfaces -> click on Setup Host Networks
On the popup, hover over the logical network (not the nic) and a little pencil or pen (or some other graphic) that is used for editing. Click on that and you'll get another popup where you can choose static/dhcp and set gateway, ip and netmask.
Thank you *so* much! I did not see the little pencil!!!
please open a bug to improve the usability if you couldn't see it...
I will do this.
Happy to help (and yes it was hard to see...)
Actually, Mike -- two of my networks were private and didn't need a gateway... but two are public, and need a gateway! Unfortunately, the interface seems to be missing that option!? It lets you configure an IP, and a subnet mask, but where's the option for specifying a gateway if you're specifying static addresses... (my guess is that it picks up the gateway if you're using DHCP).
multiple gateways? something like this? http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Multiple_Gateways
Yes. Sort of -- simpler actually. I have 4 network interfaces in each node. My "management" network consists of a 1 Gbit switch connected to all the servers in our machine room. Here, I don't need to specify a gateway since servers on this network talk to only each other. Actually, I'm surprised I can't rename ovirtmgmt to something else to generalize it as just a "management network", but it's not a big deal, I guess. My "Storage" network consists of a 1 Gbit switch now - 10 Gbit soon. Again, I don't need to specify a gateway here. Finally, the last 2 NICs are connected to the external network - a building switch that another Department controls. Here, I definately need to specify a gateway, but of course with the current setup, I can't. I will either have to hard code the gateway for these connections, or use DHCP. Since there is only one "gateway" for the external connectivity, all on the same VLAN, I don't think I need the more complicated iproute2 setup here. I prefer to stay away from that if I can... I'm surprised this isn't a more common configuration. Jason.
