Libvirt tries to find Openvswitch bridge with name like "vdsmbr_AOYiPtcT". It exists on source node, but it is unique on every node, because it contains random part.

That’s quite a horrible solution right now. I certainly would not like to see it in 4.0 (given the hacks around display). 
Do we have a bug/plan to improve it?
