Importing from OVA produces following error message: Cannot import Virtual Machine, because that action would create duplicates in target MAC pool, which are not allowed. Either allow duplicate MACs in MAC Pool, or allow reassignment of bad MACs during import. Problematic NICs are VmNetworkInterface:{id='536d40c2-959b-46fb-8fa4-538e4f7f6f29', name='nic1', networkName='ovirtmgmt', vnicProfileName='ovirtmgmt', vnicProfileId='null', speed='10000', type='3', macAddress='00:1a:4a:16:01:01', active='true', linked='true', portMirroring='false', vmId='35d73e2f-abee-4a99-9b11-569e6a0b6c2e', vmName='null', vmTemplateId='null', QoSName='null', remoteNetworkName='ovirtmgmt'} We should list readable names
Re-targeting to 4.3.1 since it is missing a patch, an acked blocker flag, or both
How do you suggest the error message to look like?
"Problematic NICs are " should list user readable NIC name, not a serialized object
Exactly
Verified: ovirt-engine-4.4.0-0.29.master.el8ev Verification scenario: 1. Import OVA with MAC address duplication with an existing VM. 2. Verify error message is now readable: Cannot import Virtual Machine, because that action would create duplicates in target MAC pool, which are not allowed. Either allow duplicate MACs in MAC Pool, or allow reassignment of bad MACs during import. Problematic NICs are nic1
