Re: [ovirt-users] hosted-engine network

Hi, Any chance to get a hint how to change the vm.conf file so it will not be overwritten constantly? Thanks a lot.

For some reason I'm not able to start the hosted-engine VM, after digging in the log files i could figured out the reason. The Network device was set to "None" as follow: devices={nicModel:pv,macAddr:00:16:3e:3a:6b:60,linkActive:true,network: *None*,deviceId:56cb4d71-13ff-42a8-bb83-7faef99fd3ea,address:{slot: 0x03,bus:0x00,domain:0x0000,type:pci,function:0x0},device: bridge,type:interface} I've created a new config file /var/run/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/vm.conf.new and set the nic device to ovirtmgnt, the I could start the hosted-engine using : hosted-engine --vm-start --vm-conf=var/run/ovirt- hosted-engine-ha/vm.conf.new The nic device line in vm.conf.new looks like: devices={nicModel:pv,macAddr:00:16:3e:3a:6b:60,linkActive:true,network: *ovirtmgmt*,deviceId:56cb4d71-13ff-42a8-bb83-7faef99fd3ea,address:{ slot:0x03,bus:0x00,domain:0x0000,type:pci,function:0x0}, device:bridge,type:interface} I tried to find out a way to change this setting on vm.conf but it is constantly rewritten, even when using the webui is say's: HostedEngine: - There was an attempt to change Hosted Engine VM values that are locked. Is there a way to modify/correct the hosted-engine vm.conf file so it will stay and not be overwritten? Thanks a lot for any hint/help rgds, arsène -- *Arsène Gschwind* Fa.
