Hi all,
I used "net-define" to create a network to use to attach VMs to an Open vSwitch bridge. The net-define worked fine, I can see the network in "net-list" (I set it to started and to autostart) but when I try to attach a new VM's NIC to this network (via virt-manager), I'm getting the following traceback:
Unable to complete install: 'Unable to add bridge vl10-ovsbr0 port vnet0: Operation not supported'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 96, in cb_wrapper

libvirtError: Unable to add bridge vl10-ovsbr0 port vnet0: Operation not supported
I'm going to assume the problem is that the bridge is not a linux bridge, but an Open vSwitch bridge. But I did have a line in the XML file that I used for net-define as follows:
<virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
But when I ran net-define, it failed to create the network with the error:
XML error: unexpected virtualport type -1
Removing that line and re-running the net-define worked, as I have stated above. How do I tell libvirt that this bridge is an Open vSwitch bridge and not a regular Linux bridge?
Thanks,
Will
