Description Yaniv Lavi 2015-03-23 14:01:56 UTC
Description of problem:
Reduce diff between upstream and downstream management networks, use the same name for new clusters. ovirt-mgmt should be used for both ovirt & RHEV.
Need to make sure we do not change existing networks and only use new name for new clusters.

Comment 1 Sandro Bonazzola 2015-06-15 13:17:24 UTC
Yaniv, how do you plan to support 3.5 clusters managed by 3.6 engine?
3.5 cluster will have rhevm bridges and 3.6 will have ovirtmgmt.

Comment 2 Sandro Bonazzola 2015-06-15 13:21:59 UTC
Also Yaniv, how does this fit on a Hosted engine deployment upgraded from 3.5 to 3.6?

In upgrades it will not change only on fresh installs.

The hosted engine needs to know what management network default name is defined, just like the engine.

Comment 4 Sandro Bonazzola 2015-06-18 05:55:46 UTC
According to comment #3 I'm going to accept the patch for rhevm-setup-plugins.
Will drop the branding also on ovirt-hosted-engine-setup and treat any issue derived by this change as a bug.

Hi Yaniv,
   Could you provide some context on why reducing the difference between upstream and downstream is important? 

Cheers,
Julie

it's not. We just need to make sure all the 3.6 docs only have this management network mentioned and not the old one.

So if it's not important, why go through the engineering effort to make this change? As you see, this creates extra workload for the docs team as well. I will create a docs bug for this. Ideally, if Engineering or the PM team see there is docs impact, a docs bug should be created already.

Cheers,
Julie

It reduces upstream to downstream diff. This is engineering over head reduction.
Also for the docs team once all the docs are upstream as well.
