Guys,
Just for the record, my problem wasn't related to Open vSwitch or Libvirt,
the problem is only with virt-manager itself.
But, I was able to create the VM using virt-manager and, at the network
configuration step, I manually selected the interface name "ovsbr0" to
create the VM XML file anyway.
After that, I typed: "virsh edit vmname" and changed the "interface" tags
to:
---
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:01:8b:3d'/>
<source bridge='ovsbr0'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
<parameters interfaceid='0514a4cb-8548-37ae-12be-6ecca14cc5fd'/>
</virtualport>
<model type='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03'
function='0x0'/>
</interface>
---
And it is working smoothly now! Even under virt-manager, if I do not touch
the network preferences...
Sorry about the buzz on the wrong mailing list.
Anyway, I have only one question related to Open vSwitch, in a nut shell,
what the following line does?
"ovs-vsctl add-port ovsbr0 ovsbr0p1 -- set interface ovsbr0p1
type=internal"
...since I'm not using it and my VM have network connectivity as
expected...
Best,
Thiago
