+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #999975 +++
Currently ovirt-engine can not handle vlans with names not in standard "dev.VLANID" (e.g. eth0.10-fcoe, em1.myvlan10, vlan20, ...).
If host has a vlan already created with an alternative name, host can not get activated and engine shows the error:
2013-08-22 10:21:03,315 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.GetCapabilitiesVDSCommand] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-29) Failed in GetCapabilitiesVDS method, for vds: vdsm-devel; host: 192.168.122.158
2013-08-22 10:21:03,316 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.GetCapabilitiesVDSCommand] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-29) Command GetCapabilitiesVDS execution failed. Exception: NumberFormatException: For input string: "myvlan40"
engine is trying to deduct vlan id from vlan name. After split the name, engine is hoping for "myvlan40" as vlan ID, which is clearly not true.
Commit "8b2bbe6 [2/3] Add "vlanid" to VLAN information" introduced in vdsm the ability to report the vlan id as an independent field, regardless the vlan name. Now engine must be fixed to get vlan id from this new field instead of deducting it from vlan name.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Change Host to maintenance mode.
- Add a vlan with alternative name to the Host:
# ip link add dev eth1.myvlan10 link eth1 name eth1.myvlan10 type vlan id 10
- Activate the Host.

A fix for this bug should be on the VDSM side. Reporting of the VLAN tag instead of the vlan device name.

Livnat, I believe that the vdsm side is already done upstream:
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/18180http://gerrit.ovirt.org/18181http://gerrit.ovirt.org/18182http://gerrit.ovirt.org/18449
and that we are left with collecting this information in Engine. Amador, haven't you started an Engine-side patch for this?

Yes, upstream vdsm is reporting vlanid like this:
...
vlans = {'eth0.10': {'addr': '',
'cfg': {},
'iface': 'eth0',
'ipv6addrs': [],
'mtu': '1500',
'netmask': '',
'vlanid': 10}, <----
...

No, I have not.
