Thanks Darrell

  I think I understand your point, but it looks to me like such a bother to have to do things like this. I will try starting from 4.4.9.

  Could a solution be to install Debian and run kvm to install the ovirt-node? I guess you waste some resources doing this but maybe worth it if you can skip all this kernel business.

I hit this too, RH appears to have limited the supported PCI ids in their be2net and no longer includes the Emulex OneConnect in the list of supported IDs. I switched to the EL repo mainline kernels to resolve the issue on existing systems, it was a bit more fun on systems needing new installs of 8.x. I think I settled on installing an older system, switching kernels, and then upgrading to current.

Good luck,

"modprobe be2net" produces no errors but the network interfaces do not show up in "ip -a" even after reboot.
