Hi all,
I am doing some testing with GPU passthrough to VMs and in some cases the
OVMF stops booting after a GPU passthrough.
I have figured out that it's related to some state stored in NVRAM by OVMF
and as soon as I create another VM with the same disks it starts booting up.
I believe oVirt saves the NVRAM state.
No it isn't. Or, better said, it wasn't. Storing of NVRAM is a new
feature in 4.4.5 and it will be enabled only for VMs with Secure Boot.
So whatever you're experiencing is probably caused by something else.
Is there a way to clear NVRAM for a VM without deleting it?
This is not part of the feature introduced in 4.4.5. But it would make
sense to have it if we later extend the NVRAM storing to all VMs with
UEFI. So despite what I wrote above it would be worth opening a feature
request bug.
