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.

Description Pei Zhang 2016-02-17 09:59:17 UTC
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.
