>From the OpenNebula point of view you need:

1.- In order to update the Networks, you need either use the same
bridge_names or use the new BRIDGE_OVS attribute.
2.- Shutdown the VMs
3.- Recreate the hosts with the new drivers

you should not need to update the VM templates, and if using the same
bridge names the Network templates neither.
