Description Marina Kalinin 2016-03-15 03:17:05 UTC
Description of problem:
HE deploy setup should use the configured nic as a default option for ovirtmgmt bridge. Right now it shows first on the list. However, since all the other default options in the setup are reasonable, the user tends to choose the suggested default option here as well and the setup fails. 
Since there is only 1 configured nic available on the host at a time of HE deployment, the setup should suggest it as the default option.

Example:
~~~
 Please indicate a nic to set ovirtmgmt bridge on: (enp0s26u1u2u5, eno1, eno2) [enp0s26u1u2u5]: eno1
~~~

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.6 RHEV-H HE deployment

How reproducible: 100% on my machine.

It seems like it might be an easy fix that may prevent many failed setup and frustration and customer cases, of course.

To me this looks like something which he-setup in general would benefit from.

Comment 2 Yaniv Lavi 2017-12-03 12:46:49 UTC
Does node zero deployment affect this?

Comment 3 Sandro Bonazzola 2018-02-20 09:52:42 UTC
Moving needinfo to Simone

Comment 4 Simone Tiraboschi 2018-02-20 09:55:07 UTC
On node-zero we are filtering on interfaces with an IPv4 address.

> On node-zero we are filtering on interfaces with an IPv4 address.

So it's not solved?

Comment 6 Simone Tiraboschi 2018-02-26 12:52:48 UTC
If only one interface is configured with an IPv4 address we are fine, if we have more than one interface with IPv4 address we are presenting the list without any special ordering criteria.

QE please test this.

Tested on latest components as follows:
cockpit-ovirt-dashboard-0.11.20-1.el7ev.noarch
rhvm-appliance-4.2-20180404.0.el7.noarch
ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.2.16-1.el7ev.noarch
ovirt-hosted-engine-ha-2.2.10-1.el7ev.noarch
Linux 3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Mar 21 18:14:51 EDT 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.5 (Maipo)

I see configured NIC as default option as expected.
