Good Morning, New to oVirt. We are using this with a backup solution from Commvault. The issue that we are having is that we need to setup a static route for specific data between 2 remote sites. The ovirtmgmt is configured with the correct IP and gateway for the server. We need to route data over a different gateway so that we don't "max out" the default network connection between the 2 sites. Example below Ovirtmgmt IP - 172.21.5.31 Gateway IP - 172.21.0.250 We need any traffic with a destination of 172.22.20.31(Remote site) to route over this gateway, 172.21.12.61 There are multiple servers in this configuration. Servers that are not using the ovirtmgmt interface for their default, we are able to route the data. The only problem is with attempting to setup a different static route on the ovirtmgmt interfaces. Thanks in advance for any help!!! Doug

Hi Doug, What is the exact problem you are having while attempting to add a static route on the hosts? Thanks in advance, On Tue, Feb 12, 2019 at 5:23 PM <doug.l.maxfield@emcins.com> wrote:

Lev, Thanks for your response. If I attempt to manually add the route using route add: route add -net 172.22.20.31 netmask 255.255.255.255 gw 172.21.12.61 dev ovirtmgmt This static route is refused and all traffic is routed over the default gateway. But if I use a server that doesn’t use the ovirtmgmt interface and set the same static route, the required data is routed correctly over that static route.

Hi Doug, What do you mean by "static route is refused"? What is the error message(s) you see? Can you please try to add the route with the following command: ip route add 172.22.20.31 via 172.21.12.61 If that doesn't work, then please provide more details, i.e. what is the exact error message(s) you see, the version of your OS and oVirt, output of "ip a" and "ip route" on your host(s), so that it will be easier to help you. Thanks in advance, On Tue, Feb 12, 2019 at 6:43 PM Doug Maxfield <Doug.L.Maxfield@emcins.com> wrote:

Lev, I guess “refused” is the incorrect word. If we set the static route as below, our network team can see that the traffic is not going over that interface and is going over the default interface. That’s why I used the term “refused”. I can certainly attempt to try that and let you know the results.

Lev, One other question, since there are multiple enabled interfaces (ovirtmgmt and eno1), do I need to specify an interface for the route add.
