Hi,
Thanks for providing script it is working fine.
But it not complete, would you help me to complete step 2 ?
https://www.ovirt.org/networking/ovs/
Setup network
In the oVirt UI open the 'Setup Host Networks' dialog. Proceed to editing a
desired logical network's properties. Among them you will find 'ovs', set
it to 'true' or '1' to mark is as a OVS Network.
And have one doubt.
Why we have to set ovs property two time ?
Thanks,
~Rohit
