Hi Wido,
Thanks for your response. Not sure what you mean w.r.t setting
up the KVM agent. We're not doing anything with the KVM agent, except when
we initially installed the qemu-kvm packages. Also, we're working through
the command line and not using the WebUI.
If we setup our own bridges and keep them separate from eth0, the
cloud-setup-agent tool will figure out which ones to use correctly?
thanks,
Gautam
