the first suspect would be qemu-kvm and maybe the bios, can you please downgrade it to the previously
Oh the fun of downgrading...pass:) But it just so happens that we have another ovirt system running, apart from the production system, that may be less patched. I´ll check and see if there´s any difference there. Is there any data you wish me to share, like logs or something while testing? Or just yay/nay?
if we identify the offending package, and versions, easier to report the regression and ask to fix it
So yay/nay it is! Thanks.
I´ve now tested to create a new FreeBSD server with dual cores in our experiment/test system and it worked, no problemo.

so seems like you have different: kernel seabios libvirt
can you please upgrade them one by one to find the culprit (I'd do in this order for simplicity of rollback: seabios, libvirt, kernel)
Done. Kernel is the culprit! We have two hosts in the test system, so what I did was to first update seabios; test, then update libvirt; test, kernel; test on host1, where all was well until after booting new kernel. So I wanted to know for sure that it was only the kernel's blame, so on host2 only kernel was updated and afterwards the issue started appearing. So definitely, kernel. PS. As I expected, downgrading the packages again failed horribly. I friggin' hate trying to downgrade, even for just a few packages, I opt-out and rather just reinstall the whole thing to save me the headache:)
