Hi Aill,
We are creating two nics using the api, but it seems the second network is not come up and the first one is working. The following xml is used to for the nic creation
<nic> <interface>virtio</interface> <name>eth0</name> <boot_protocol>static</boot_protocol> <mac address='".$ip->mac_address."'/> <network> <ip address='".$ip->mac_ip."' netmask='255.255.255.0' gateway='".$ip->mac_gateway."'/> </network> <on_boot>true</on_boot> <vnic_profile id='bbabc471-667d-4221-bc8e-4ab30b3dcc34' /> </nic>
<nic> <interface>virtio</interface> <name>eth1</name> <boot_protocol>static</boot_protocol> <mac address='".$ip->mac_address."'/> <network> <ip address='".$ip->mac_ip."' netmask='255.255.255.0' gateway='".$ip->mac_gateway."'/> </network> <on_boot>true</on_boot> <vnic_profile id='037d806f-d76b-4da3-84b6-ac7a5087f836' /> </nic>
When i checked the configuration file (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1) after creating...i find it seems the ONBOOT=no.....eventhough we set it true from the api. Is this a bug ?
I do not know what "on_boot" means in oVirt API, but it certainly is not passed to Vdsm or the guest, and as such cannot control what's in the guest's /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1.
The guest may have ifcfg files, it may run NetworkManager, or it may be Ubunto or Windows. oVirt is responsible to exposing a (virtual) NIC to the guest, but does not interfere with its configuration.
