[Users] Network profile lost after host edit

[Simon Barrett]

To test this further I setup another 3.3.2-1.el6 ovirt-engine. I'm not seeing the same problem on the new engine.

I'm going to try and move all configuration/VM's etc from the problem ovirt-engine install to the new one to see if the problem re-appears. 

I'll let you know how it goes.

Simon

I'll open one as soon as I test the issue. Unless Simon would like to pick up the gauntlet and open one on bugzilla.redhat.com?...
