Hello Edward, this happened again today and I was able to check more
details.
So:
- The VM stopped passing any network traffic.
- Checking 'brctl showmacs ovirtmgmt' it showed the VM's mac address
missing.
- I then went to oVirt Engine, under VM's 'Network Interfaces' tab,
clicked Edit and changed the Link State to Down then to Up and it
recovered its connectivity.
- Another 'brctl showmacs ovirtmgmt' showed the VM's mac address learned
again by the bridge.
This Node server has the particularity of sharing the ovirtmgmt with
VMs. Could it possibly be the cause of the issue in any way ?
Thanks
Fernando

Not tried this yet Edwardh, but will do at next time it happens. THe
source mac address should be the mac as the VM. I don't see any reason
for it to change from within the VM ou outside.
What type of things would make the bridge stop learning a given VM mac
address ?

<br>
I am still facing a bizarre problem where some VMs
connected to this bridge stop passing traffic. Checking
the problem further I see its mac address stops being
learned by the bridge and the problem is resolved only
with a VM reboot.<br>
<br>
When I last saw the problem I run brctl showmacs ovirtmgmt
and it shows me the VM's mac adress with agening timer
200.19. After the VM reboot I see the same mac with
agening timer 0.00.<br>
I don't see it in another environment where the ovirtmgmt
is not used for VMs.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have any clue about this type of behavior ?<br>
<br>
