There's also a thread about Solaris 11 here:

I suggest to use the following settings for your Solaris guest:
* Operating System: Other
* nic1: rtl8139
* Disk1: IDE
Booting from the DVD ISO works fine for Sol 10 and 11 with these settings.

In my oVirt setup (3.3 now, but worked on 3.2, too) there are Solaris 10 and 11 vms
running.
See the specs above.
I had some issues with network traffic, which can be solved with a host hook
(99_fix_solaris):

Please let me know if this fixes your issues...
