I managed to get Solaris networking running when removing cpu model and
cpu match attributes, which are added by oVirt but not by virt-manager.

I created a hook script (99_fix_solaris) which removes these
information. Afterwards networking is fine in Solaris guests:

Just one question renaming:
Is there any downside from oVirt side when removing these cpu
information like e.g. features aren't working as expected?


Thanks all for the hints.

René
