Hello! I've faced a weird problem. And I totally can't understand how libvirt handles networks. The thing that i need to do is simple. I create a bridge in my ubuntu host, the following config: *iface eth0 inet manual* * * *auto br0* *iface br0 inet dhcp* * bridge_ports eth0* * bridge_stp on* * bridge_maxwait 0* That's OK, and my bridge turns up automatically. But I don't understand why libvirt can't use it, it always want to create bridge on its own. So that when I try to create bridged network with the command: virsh virsh net-create net.xml net.xml contents: * <network>* * <name>virbreth0</name>* * <bridge name='br0' stp='on' delay='0' />* * </network>* I always get error ===> error: Failed to create network from net.xml error: cannot create bridge 'br0': File exists That's pretty obvious that libvirt wants to create bridge on its own. But what should I do in my specific situation. May be there is a workaround. I appreciate any help and ideas... Thanks for your answers. Best regards, Denis Barishev.
