Hello again Juan Pablo, We're aware that the networking (among other things) in oVirt isn't perfect, we're working on it :) As I had mentioned, the 3.2 release did improve the network functionality, as well as make it much user-friendlier, so an upgrade is recommended if possible. Also, in the up-and-coming 3.3 there's an OpenStack Quantum integration feature that should enable oVirt users to take advantage of the rich network topologies offered by Quantum. As for your current situation, by far your safest choice would be to configure the VLANs in your switches. However, depending on your VDSM version, you might be able to enable non-VM networks in your cluster simply by changing a configuration value in your engine database (although this would be an unsupported hack and I can't guarantee that it won't mess anything up). If interested, I can give you more details on what to change exactly, but I'm not sure that it will actually solve your problem - you still won't be able to have two non-VLAN networks on the same NIC, at most you'll be able to have one non-VM, non-VLAN network residing with VLAN networks. And I'm not sure even that will work in 3.1. Yours, Lior. On 15/05/13 19:42, Juan Pablo Lorier wrote:
Hi Lior
I did managed to get the mgmt network tagged so now I can use the same interface for several networks. The thing now is that I also have two networks I use for iscsi that I'd like to be able to use in the same interface (not the mgmt one) in one of the hosts, but as this networks are in vlan1 untagged, I can't share the same interface. One of the things to try was marking the network as not VM (to see if I can share the interface in that scenario as suggested before), but I can't get the networks to be not-vm. What I'm doing as a work arround is to have the networks in a tagged vlan, but again, I can't have two networks in the same vlan :-(, thus, I'll have to configure two different vlans in my switchers just to be able to share the interface. This is not the greatest scenario as network layer tools in linux give all the needed options, but ovirt seems not to be able to use them yet. I was evaluating Proxmox prior to move to ovirt and they had this quite well implemented, I was able to do everything I needed with the network like with XEN (my actual virt platform) but cluster was not that easy to get going and I moved. Nothing is perfect :-) Anyway, I'll keep an eye on ovirt evolution to see if this gets better before I move to production. Thank you all for your help, any ideas are always welcome. Regards,
