Hi all,

 

I am probably missing out on something, but hopefully you can help!

I am currently trying to install a VM for a Retronas host, using his docker app, as published in the CA apps.

 

This works fine. When running the docker I see it creating the VM and downloading the vdisk and unpacking it.

The VM works like a charm with this as it's config:

..However I need this vm to run on a different vlan, so I chgange the "Network Source" to the right one for that specific VLAN.

Not changing anything else, such as boot orders etc.

 

Result after doing this: the VM boots and states there are no bootable devices... 😕

 

What am I missing/doing wrong?

 

Thanks!

Hmm I fixed it, but I think I found a bug perhaps?

 

When I change the network via the gui it does the above.

When I first copy the xml, then change that content in a text editor, by adding the .1060 (which is the vlan) to the network info, and copy that back into the VM while being in XML mode, it works.

 

Whenever I change back to GUI mode (or whatever it is called), it will not work anymore.
