can't add network interface to OpenVZ containers

[starnetwork]

Hi,
when I try to add from GUI network interface, I got the next error: http://awesomescreenshot.com/0a03bzdye4
when I try from CLI, I got

vzctl --skiplock set 458 --netif_add venet1,5E:D7:1E:31:2F:06,veth458.0,6A:30:42:6B:37:7B,vmbr1 --save
Configure veth devices: veth458.0
According to /etc/pve/openvz/458.conf, CT458 has no veth interface configured.
/usr/sbin/vznetcfg exited with error
Error: failed to apply some parameters, not saving configuration file!

any Suggestion?

Best Regards,
Star Network.

Stop the CT, then apply your changes (I have no idea why it fails).

work, thanks!
BTW, it's same issue on 3 different clusters, all work with vmbr0 for internet and vmbr1 for local network (backups / cluster)

Maybe related to that strange interface name. We normally use 'eth[X]' instead of 'venet[X]' for bridged interfaces.
