Oddly enough, on Ubuntu 16.04 I had similar issues, but different outputs.
The "fix" for me was pretty much the same. The oddest part was that apt
reported that python-ethtool was on version 0.11-3. I removed it and
installed via a deb file anyways.
sudo apt-get remove python-ethool *(even though reporting 0.11-3, this
also remove ovirt-guest-agent*)
wget
http://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/
python-ethtool/python-ethtool_0.11-3_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i python-ethtool_0.11-3_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install ovirt-guest-agent
sudo systemctl enable ovirt-guest-agent.service
sudo systemctl status ovirt-guest-agent.service (now reports as active
(running)!)

Actually just got it working.
17.04 seems to have version .12-1 of python-ethtool.
I simply removed it and the ovirt agent
sudo apt-get remove python-ethtool
And then I found the same version of python-ethtool on my 16.04 ubuntu
server (0.11-3) and found a deb file for it:
wget
http://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/python-e
thtool/python-ethtool_0.11-3_amd64.deb
dpkg -i python-ethtool_0.11-3_amd64.deb
and the reinstalled ovirt
sudo apt-get install ovirt-guest-agent
The GUI is now giving me memory and CPU and indicating that everything is
up to date!
