I have a production ovirt setup that's gone through multiple updates over the years.
At some point when 4.0 or 4.1 came out, I switched from legacy networking to OVS, and
everything worked perfectly until I upgraded to 4.2. Since I upgraded to 4.2, I've
been getting messages that the networks were all out of sync, but everything continued
working properly.
Today I tracked down the network sync problem, fixed it on one of my three hosts, and then
attempted to start a VM on the host. It refused to start with the error message:
"Unable to add bridge ovirtmgmt port vnet0: Operation not supported". From what
I can tell, the xml being generated is still for the old legacy network. I completely
reinstalled the node, using the latest 4.2.3 node ISO image, and it still doesn't
work.
In the cluster, the switch type is "OVS (Experimental)" (and this option
can't be changed, apparently), the compatibility version is 4.2, the firewall type is
firewalld and there's no "Default Network Provider".
I suspect that my upgrades have somehow left my system in half OVS/half legacy mode, but
I'm not sure how to move it all the way to OVS mode and I don't want to mess with
the other two hosts until I'm sure I've got it figured out.

If anyone could point me in the right direction to get this fixed, I'd sure appreciate
it.
