[ovirt-users] change network MTU settings without taking all the VMs down?

[Martin Pavlík]

Hi Darell,

you could switch the vNICs to different/empty network for a while. Or if possible you can just shut down the VMs that should do the trick as well.

I see the GUI won’t let me do that while the network is in use. Any way around this, clean or otherwise? Restarting VMs to update them is ok, just trying to avoid having to take everything down at the same time.
