The issue here is that the ifcfg-rh backend doesn't remove the OVS_PORT=port0 variable from the connection during the update. This is fixed on master by commit "ifcfg-rh: clear all untouched, known keys before writing ifcfg-rh file": https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/07262b165d411456680be062df5f74b43d921dca fixed on nm-1-22 branch: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/0c8046574e782ca926d265348d10866f1653aef1 (also, a simpler reproducer in the commit message). @QA: I think this is a very trivial fix. I don't think it's worth writing a CI test. Manual testing should suffice. Thanks for the quick fix. It works well. *** Bug 1804561 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** test clear_ovs_settings added Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
