[ovirt-users] New host HE 4.0 -> [ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Environment customization': Specified gateway is not pingable

True, but you can up an IP on any device in that case because you know
what you are doing.

I think that this can be finetuned, or at least multiple IPs would be
nice as I now need to add one IP from my vrrp setup, so if there is a
failover.... or I need to take down the second switch I'm also done.
