Andrew -- thanks for the reply.
Since <guest_info> of a <vm> is not modifiable, is there a way to set a
VM's IP address.
This seems like a really needed functionality when provisioning VMs
through the Rest API.

Subject: [Users] Rest API for vmanager 3.0 (set VM ip address)
Hi everyone,
i am using the vmanager's 3.0 Rest API.
have created a VM from an existing template (using http POST) and
been trying to find a way to set the VMs ip address
with no success. I tried supplying the ip address in the <guest_info>
element during VM creation as in:
<guest_info>
<ips>
<ip address="x.x.x.x"/>
</ips>
</guest_info>
That's a read only property that shows the IP address of the virtual
machine reported by the in-guest agent.
There's discussion going on about how we pass a payload to a VM that can
handle things like in-guest configuration
http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Features/VMPayload
But the created VM ends up with the same ip address as that in the
template.
Anyone attempted to do something similar ? Is there another way of
doing it. I tried the nics API but there seem to be no interface
to modify a nic's ip address.
Thank you.
Regards,
Messaoud Benantar
