[Users] Kickstarting the VM's -- new ovirt user

All, I'm working on my first ovirt setup and have managed to get to the point where I have a VM running. Most of my VM's will be centos-6.x and I already have a DHCP/PXE/kickstart environment for that. Is there a way in ovirt to specify what MAC address a new VM will get? Or is there another way to accomplish this? (I could care less about the specific MAC thats just what I use on bare hardware to id which server is which.) -- Hunter Matthews Unix Administrator Office: Bldg 240 Room 2139 Argonne National Labs, MCS Key: F0F88438 / FFB5 34C0 B350 99A4 BB02 9779 A5DB 8B09 F0F8 8438 Never take candy from strangers. Especially on the internet.

Hi Hunter, you can get and set the mac address rage using: engine-config -g MacPoolRanges (to see the current range) and then engine-config -s MacPoolRanges=<new range> You can set a specific mac for a specific VM in the new or edit network interface dialog. Look for: "Specify custom MAC address".
