H,
We found a functionality that we use once in a while no longer is permitted in
4.2.1. It seems in line with the philosophy of cloudstack but is hurting our
operation. In 4.1.1 we could add a bridged network with the following network
offering:
cno.traffictype = "GUEST"
cno.guestiptype = "Isolated"
cno.specifyipranges = True
cno.specifyvlan = False
cno.serviceproviderlist = [ { "service": "Connectivity", "provider":
"NiciraNvp"},
{ "service": "UserData", "provider":
"VirtualRouter"},
{ "service": "Dhcp", "provider": "VirtualRouter"} ]
This is no longer allowed. The use case we have for this is to bridge isolated
networks using nicira into hardware/baremetal networks. We tried to work around
it yesterday by using shared networks but can't because as of now we only
support isolated networks on nicira. The cause of the regression is part of
commit

in one zone, Admin should not be allowed to add a Shared Network with a subnet
that is already associated with another Vlan.
Which changes mostly the overlap code in
server/src/com/cloud/configuration/ConfigurationManagerImpl.java but also some
code in NetworkServiceImpl:

I made a custom patch for 4.2.1 to maintain daily operation and would like to
consider putting this in 4.3 as well. Any alternatives will be considered.
Kind regards,
