Hi all,

I've just installed a new el7 datacenter, and many questions came up with. I was surprised to see that all vdsm generated ifcfg files were NM_CONTROLLED=no, and NetworkManager was disabled in systemd. The same for firewalld, disabled for regular iptables files. Will that default el7/fedora features be adpated to ovirt in a next release?

You probably want to track these:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=995362 [RFE] Support firewalld https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1107803 [RFE] Add a NetworkManager configurator to Vdsm

While proper integration with NetworkManager is a remote target, NetworkManager could be up and running on an el7 oVirt host - as long as it does not touch interfaces configured by Vdsm. This is at least my experience. Can you tell what disabled NetworkManager and where? Does anything bad happens when you start NetworkManager on that host?
