Hi Jon, <br>
<br>
Thanks for the feedback. I don't believe its an issue with libvirtd
versions, but with the utilities managing libvirt. Opennebula can
already use the openvswitch bridges when defined in a VM xml
configuration file. <br>
<br>
Upon inspection of the attach_nic script, we can see there that it's
using "virsh attach-inteface" while attach_disk uses "virsh
attach-device" and uses an xml config file as input. The virsh
utility does not support openvswitch bridges when specified in the
command line yet. <br>
<br>
I'm seeing how we can device a workaround for this. Either we
re-program the attach_nic script to use "attach-device" or
encapsulate the ovs bridge as a libvirt network definition as
suggested in the libvirt-users list. <br>

Everyone,<br>
<br>
Hope everyone is doing ok. :)<br>
<br>
Just want to ask if anybody has tried the NIC hot plug
functionality<br>
with OpenVSwitch. I'm testing ONE 4.0.1 and am having error
messages<br>
pertaining to the creation of the virtual ports for the VMs.
It<br>
outputs "error: Unable to add bridge ovsbr0 port vnetX:
Operation not<br>
supported". I did some Google'ing and it seems that the
virsh CLI<br>
utility has not been updated to support OpenVSwitch bridges
as it still<br>
treats the type bridge argument to be a linux bridge. I'm
thinking of<br>
recoding the "attach_nic" script to create an xml file and
use "virsh<br>
attach-device" to hot plug the NIC the same way disk hot
plugging is<br>
done. Any thoughts? Or is there something else I should
know why ONE<br>
used "attach-interface" in the first place?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
John Robert Mendoza<br>
