I'm not entirely sure if you honestly asking or just trying to make me
realize how many variables are involved in such support. I will assume the
former.
I have team0 interface of two physical NICs. I'd like to have this team0
interface attached to particular VM. That would mean bridged network I suppose.
There are no VLANs in my setup.
To be clear, I am able to tear down this setup and revert to old-school bond.
I'd prefer not to – it needs some downtime to reconfigure and validate.
So now I'm against the question: what will require more work from me,
reconfiguring network or making ovirt recognize basic team0.
