Description of problem: You can't change static IP configuration on rhevm bridge, so it should be greyed out. The situation now is that you can change the ip, but when pushing the ok button you get an error message that you need to reinstall the host in order to change IP Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start with static ip configuration 2. Try to change ip 3. Actual results: You get an error message: The management network address cannot be modified without reinstalling the host Expected results: IP should be greyed out and this message should be in tool tip. Additional info: Error while executing action: silver-vdsa.qa.lab.tlv.redhat.com: Cannot setup Networks. The management network address cannot be modified without reinstalling the host, since this address was used to create the host's certification.
Some documentation for posterity's sake: the bug wasn't fixed as proposed, but rather the behavior was changed so that the IP address of ANY network (not only management) can be changed if and only if it hadn't been equal to the hostname, as in that case (and only in that case) it is known for sure that the engine would lose connectivity to the host.
