Re: [ovirt-users] Change ovirtmgmt ip from dhcp to static in a

Hi Michael and thanks a lot for the time Great step by step instructions but something strange is happening while trying to change to static ip. I tried to do the change while the host was in maintenance mode and in activate mode but again after some minutes the system reverts to the ip that dhcp is serving! What am i missing here? Do you have any ideas?

For non-SPM host this will work fine as well when the host is UP.

Both engine and host are in the same machine cause of limited resources and i was so happy that everything worked so well that i kept configuring and installing vm's ,adding local and nfs storage and setting up the backup! As you understand i must change the configuration to static ip and i can't find any guide describing the correct procedure. Is there an official guide to change configuration without causing any trouble? I've found this thread http://lists.ovirt.org/ pipermail/users/2014-May/024432.html but this is for a hosted engine and doesn't help when both engine and host are in the same machine Thanx in advance Best Regards Zois _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users -- Michael Burman Senior Quality engineer - rhv network - redhat israel Red Hat <https://www.redhat.com> mburman(a)redhat.com M: 0545355725 IM: mburman <https://red.ht/sig>
