There have been multiple issue regarding net config upgrade. We might
have nailed an important one regarding ovirt-node.

However, I'd like to learn more about your report regarding new systems.
Your report sounds similar to

Besides Vdsm slowliness to start the network, what are the reasons for
your not wanting ovirt to touch your ifcfg? BTW, even today ovirt
overwrites ifcfg files, but only on network def time, to on every boot.
