[ovirt-users] Could not get access to ACL tech driver 'ebiptables'

[Kenneth Bingham]

I suspect this has something to do with macspoofing because I found that I
was able to start a guest by changing the virtual network interface profile
to remove network filtering. I verified the guests are able to start with
filtering enabled on the vnic profile if it is set to false in
engine-config and ovirt-engine service bounced. I'd prefer to leaf
macspoofing disabled globally and only enable for things like VRR, CARP;
but I'll have to leave it enabled for now. Could it be that the macs of the
imported guests, being from the foreign mac pool, are being blocked by an
ebtables policy? I wonder if I add their Ethernet range to the pools of the
gaining Manager...
