Description of problem: As we already fixed some useful options for attach-interface command. the same issue still happens on detach-interface command. perhaps it also needs a fix. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libvirt-0.10.2-57.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.check with virsh help: # virsh help detach-interface NAME detach-interface - detach network interface SYNOPSIS detach-interface <domain> <type> [--mac <string>] [--config] DESCRIPTION Detach network interface. OPTIONS [--domain] <string> domain name, id or uuid [--type] <string> network interface type --mac <string> MAC address --config affect next boot 2.check document detach-interface domain type [--mac mac] [--config] Detach a network interface from a domain. type can be either network to indicate a physical network device or bridge to indicate a bridge to a device. It is recommended to use the mac option to distinguish between the interfaces if more than one are present on the domain. If --config is specified, alter persistent configuration, effect observed on next boot, for compatibility purposes, --persistent is alias of --config. 3.use --config to detach, it works as --persistent, no only for next boot, but also works for current running states. # virsh dumpxml r6 | grep interface -A 4 <interface type='network'> <mac address='52:54:00:aa:b4:a1'/> <source network='default'/> <target dev='vnet0'/> <model type='virtio'/> -- </interface> <serial type='pty'> # virsh detach-interface r6 --type network --mac "52:54:00:aa:b4:a1" --config Interface detached successfully # virsh dumpxml r6 | grep interface -A 4 # virsh dumpxml r6 --inactive | grep interface -A 4 Nothing output. Actual results: As above. Expected results: Fix it as same as attach-interface. Additional info: This is only happened on rhel6. Rhel7 already provide other options for detach-interface.
