Hello,
suppose I have an environment with self hosted engine environment in 4.1
How is it generated the hw address of the virtual nic of the engine vm
when I deploy using cockpit?
Suppose on a lan I already have a self hosted engine environment and I'm
going to create another one on the same lan, is there any risck of hw
address collision for the engine?
I know that from inside web admin console I can then set the hw address
ranges for the VMs, but what about the mac of the engine vm itself?
At the moment I have only lan access and so crosschecked an RHV 4.1
environment and I see that the engine has hw addr 00:16:3e:7c:65:34 (a
lookup seems to associate to "Xensource, Inc.") while the VMs have their hw
addr in the range 00:1a:4a:16:01:51 - 00:1a:4a:16:01:e6 (eg
the 00:1a:4a:16:01:56) (a lookup seems to associate to "Qumranet Inc.".
Does this mean that the engine has a sort of dedicated range? Any risk of
collision or is a query on the lan done before assigning it?
It has been discussed here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1244502
In a few worlds: the proposed HE MAC address are explicitly on a different
range just to minimize collision risks on complex scenarios.
BTW: probably the range for engine VM hw addr has to be put in Qumranet
too...?
Thanks in advance,
Gianluca
