[Users] Network profile lost after host edit

I am now able to reproduce the problem where network profile definitions are lost on VM edit.

- Create VM
- From the "Network Interfaces" tab, click on "New" and assign the ovirtmgt profile to nic1
- Edit VM, from the "nic1" drop down select another profile and click OK
- Edit the same VM again and nic1 lists as <Empty>

I upgraded to 3.3.2-1.el6 and still see the problem.

As ever, any help is very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Simon

Lior,

I'm running 3.3.1.

I think it may be related to how I created the VM's. Another VM created using the blank template works fine and the network config displays correctly when I click on edit. 

The problem VM's were created with a different template. I'll dig a bit further to see if I can narrow it down any further. 

I don't have to click show advanced to exhibit the problem.

Thanks for the response 

Simon
