Hello, I recently deploy two KVM hosts and one KVM engine. things seem to be working good so far; however, I cannot create bonds in my KVM hosts. I have 4 interfaces, two enabled (cable connected) and two disabled (cable unplugged, not needed at the moment). The ovirmgmt network is running on one of the active interfaces. I have done the following: Create LACP bond with both connected interfaces. Create Load-balancing XOR bond with both connected interfaces. Create LACP bond with both unplugged interfaces. Create Load-balancing XOR bond with both unplugged interfaces. Create LACP bond with one connected and one unplugged interface. Create Load-balancing XOR bond with one connected and one interfaces. Remove server from KVM engine, create bond at the host level using cockpit, try to add the host back into KVM cluster. None of the options i have tried successfully create the bond in the KVM cluster. I will appreciate your assistance in getting this to work. Environment details OS on all servers: Oracle Linux 8.9 with kernel 5.15.0-205.149.5.1.el8uek.x86_64 KVM engine: running on a virtual machine in vCenter KVM hosts: physical servers Software version: 4.5.4-1.0.31.el8 Thank you

Seems to be a known issue for OLVM. I would suggest to update all the systems to the latest packages. We’ve fixed this issue in updated nispor, nmstate and kernel-uek packages. Simon Sent from my iPhone

Hello Simon, My apologies for the late replay. I was able to fix the issue, it turns out that even though I was following the instructions, somehow, I ended up installing version 4.5 on the KVM Manage Engine, but 4.4 on the KVM hosts. In order to be able to create the network bond in OLVM the following packages are required: - kernel-uek-5.15.0-203.146.5.1.el8uek.x86_64.rpm - nmstate-1.4.5-2.0.1.el8_9.x86_64.rpm - nispor-1.2.15-1.el8.x86_64.rpm The KVM hosts had the kernel and nmstate with the correct version; however, nispor was on 1.2.10. It turns out that nispor 1.2.15 is included only in version 4.5 in the Oracle repositories. Once I updated my KVM hosts to 4.5 I was able to create the network bonds. I hope this helps someone in the future. Have a great day.

Right, we’re working to get the same nispor updated package available for 4.4 too. Simon
