Assuming this is ovirt-engine-3.3 and above: 

Do you have a vnic profile for rhevm network with port_mirroring enabled ?
Which user are you using for adding this vnic ?

You need to verify such a vnic profile exist and the user which adds the
vnic has permissions to use that profile.

Alternately, you can provide the vnic_profile_id instead of the network name
and the port mirroring which is the deprecated signature.
