On 3.2 Data Center you should be able to change the VM Network property of the ovirtmgmt network as long there are no clusters defined on the DC. In order to modify network property on DC level it should be detached from the DC's clusters, however since the management network cannot be detached from a cluster you should configure it prior to adding clusters to the DC. Update non-management network could be done by detaching the network from all clusters, modifying the network and re-assign the network to the clusters. > > Second, I tried to create a logical network, call it "vmnetwork", linked > it to datacenter and cluster.

You could do that by defining the management network as vlan (requires configuring the network manually on the host) and set the vlan-tag on the ovirtmgmt network on DC's logical network sub-tab. Alternately, you should be able to attach networks with vlan-tag to an interface which a non-vm network (bridgeless) is already attached to it. > > Third, is this a bug when I come back to the configuration window, that > the networks (for ovirmgmt and vmnetwork) return to "DHCP" ?
