Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Please use the proper component when duplicating the bug as I think this will again be a problem of netcf. I'm changing the component, feel free to change it back in case you've got ani information to support that change.
Actually the BZ that was cloned was against virt-manager; it is about virt-manager's response to the error, rather than the error itself.
The bug filed against libvirt (then moved to the upstream libvirt tracker) was Bug 786696. Unfortunately, moving it to the upstream tracker removes it from the immediate radar, making it essentially invisible.
So, either the wrong BZ was cloned to RHEL7 (i.e. this should have been a clone of Bug 786696) in which case netcf would be the correct component, or this BZ really should be assigned to virt-manager.

(In reply to Laine Stump from comment #3)
Actually the UI is disabled because the error dialog is modal. When the dialog is closed, virt-manager operates normally. Unfortunately, there is no way to virt-manager to react anyhow differently; when call to a libvirt function fails with an error, we just show it to the user.
This ended up being a problem in libvirt, which would insist on getting live status of a bond interface even when the interface was inactive. Since an inactive bond has no slaves, none would be reported in the returned XML, but libvirt's XML parser required a <bond> element, so would generate an error.
The details of the libvirt commit fixing the bug are in Bug 878394, and this is a duplicate of that bug.
