No, because as I've explained before (and I really wish people would start
understanding this) FcOE is not a network based storage protocol.

The one thing I haven't heard clearly answered - is it a valid configuration
to have a FCoE-enabled NIC that *also* has an IP for other outgoing traffic?

If so, we *do* need more than NM_CONTROLLED=no. If not... we don't.


Ok, so I had to go ask some more knowledgeable people. Yes this is possible,
but only in combination with DCB which we currently do not support (as it
isn't working yet according to upstream).

Also this is a very unlikely (as in don't do that you silly) configuration.
So for now I'm just going to submit my patch which writes NM_CONTROLLED=no
for ifcfg files for NIC's used for FCoE and then if this ever becomes
an issue, we can revisit this.

Regards,

Hans
