Separating the management to its own bond and everything else to a second
bond sounds reasonable.
So in this case, it will be less risky to just leave the ovirtmgmt as is
and move the other networks to the other bond.
If the current ovirtmgmt is on a non-vlan network, just set the switch that
connects to this bond slaves as access ports of vlan 35.

It is preferable not to play too much with the management network, as you
may loose the host (although VDSM has a safety
process in place that will revert the change in case Engine-Host
connectivity is lost).

If you prefer to move ovirtmgmt, make sure you perform the network detach
and attach steps (including any VLAN changes)
in one transaction (change what you need and then do an apply for
everything).

Thanks,
Edy.
