Description Dan Kenigsberg 2014-01-27 17:13:21 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1044060 +++

Description of problem:

The ifcfg files on the hypervisor for physical interfaces generated by RHEV have the 'HWADDR' mac address field in them. We need that to not happen. Through biosdevnames and previous techniques we already guarantee that NIC names will remain consistent across boot and this breaks our operational practices.

This is focused on RHEV deployment on RHEL6 where NetworkManager does not run.

Comment 1 Dan Kenigsberg 2014-01-27 22:26:51 UTC
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/23662 was merged to the ovirt-3.3 branch and would be included in the next 3.3.z release.

Comment 2 Sandro Bonazzola 2014-03-31 12:28:55 UTC
This is an automated message. Moving to Closed CURRENTRELEASE since oVirt 3.3.4 has been released.
