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-
ethtool/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!

It is a bug that is also present in 16.04. The log directory in
/var/log/ovirt-guest-agent has the wrong user (or permission) It should
have ovirtagent as user and group.

I am having trouble getting the ovirt agent working on Ubuntu 17.04
(perhaps it just isnt there yet)
Currently I have two test machines a 16.04 and a 17.04 ubuntu servers.
*On the 17.04 server*:
Currently isntalled:
ovirt-guest-agent (1.0.12.2.dfsg-2), and service --status-all reveals a
few virtualization agents:
[ - ] open-vm-tools
[ - ] ovirt-guest-agent
[ + ] qemu-guest-agent
I can't seem to start ovirt-guest-agent
sudo service ovirt-guest-agent start/restart does nothing
Running *sudo systemctl status ovirt-guest-agent.service*

Also does not seem to do antyhing.
Doing more research, I found:

So perhaps the ovirt-guest-agent is broken for Ubuntu 17.04?
*On the 16.04 Server I have:*
Took some fiddling, but I eventually got it working
