Hi Strahil,
Unfortunately virtio drives cannot be used. Guest OS is CentOS 5.2, kernel 2.6.18-92.1.17.el5.centos.plusPAE
The network connectivity of the VM is very short (please see below). Till I connect the VM (via spice) network connectivity is already gone.
tcpdump –I eth0 –v
tcpdump: listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB ( Ethernet ), capture 96 bytes

Hi Lacho,
Can you run the virtio drivers ?
They are the most tested in KVM .
Also, can you run a tcpdump (with e1000) and check what is going on when the network disapperead?
Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov

Dear Strahi,
I tried rtl8139. The behavior is the same.

Hi Latcho,
Most probably it's a bug.
Have you tried virtio and/or rtl-based NIC ?
As far as I know, CentOS 5 supports Virtio after Kernel >= 2.6.25 .

Hello Everyone,
I am aware my guest OS is out of support but I experienced the following:
oVirt – 4.2.8 (self-hosted engine)
VM – CentOS 5.2; two VNIC’s ( driver used e1000) connected to different VLAN’s; - no issues with network connectivity
After upgrade to oVirt 4.3.7
The same VM starts normally. Network is available for several seconds (10 – 20 pings) and then it disappears. The machine works but no ping to/from VM. When I am returning the same machine (via export domain) to oVirt 4.2.8 environment – it works as expected.
Can someone advise on this? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Best,
Latcho
