I noticed that the vif20.0 interface was successfully added to the bridge during VM creation, presumably the script responsible for that used the ovs command instead of brctl While I could add some permanent hack to the script I modified above, and this might be important to include in the wheezy release, I don't want to second-guess the strategic way of sorting this out, would you know who is maintaining this part of XCP and how we can get some direction on this? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
