Dear All,
With your permission I will elaborate more on OpenvSwitch integration. I will try briefly
to share with you my experience.
My university uses MS Windows Active directory 2008R2 with several domains dedicated to
connect staff computers, computer labs, users private devices, different types of users
etc.
I have test environment (CentOS 6 based) for my colleagues in the office. It was built by
6 machines:
1. engine, recently upgraded to ver. 3.3.3, connected to Active Directory, serves also ISO
NFS domain;
2. Data center 1 - with two nodes - one of nodes serves also iSCSI storage domain;
3. Data center 2 - with two nodes;
4. Regular PC - serves as iSCSI storage domain for Data center 2
Since Ovirt ver. 3.1 no longer I have physical machine installed with Windows. For my
daily Windows related routine tasks I am using virtual MS Windows 7 Enterprise machine
joined to university Active Directory.
In order to make my colleagues life easy I have created several templates with different
distributions. What was reaction of my colleagues when I encouraged them to experiment
with the new environment? My colleagues told me - everything is fine for experimenting but
we need NAT network in order to make test setups of experimental MS Windows domain, Active
Directory, Exchange servers etc. We do not want to mess with current production
environment. This is going to be a problem if we decide to offer to students such
experimental environment in educational process - classes for system unix/linux/windows
administration, examples for cloud computing etc.
I am still testing with OpenvSwitch integration in order to find solution for such case.
To be honest with you - no luck yet. If the integration with OpenStack is better
supported - I think it will be much easier to create safe environments for testing and
experimenting.
Please excuse me for this long e-mail.
Thank you!
Best,
Latcho

+1 for that one too.

Does this mean making simpler the integration with Neutron that is currently allowing to
use OpenvSwitch or does this call for direct use of ovs?
