Description Nicolas Ecarnot 2015-10-06 07:34:52 UTC
Description of problem:
From a nice working VM in 2008 R2, I added a second NIC.
When rebooting the VM, PXE boot was forced and never falling over down to hard drive boot.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.5.1.1

How reproducible:
I saw it once.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a VM in windows server 2008 R2 64 bits standard with a NIC, boot it, reboot it some times, see it OK, shutdown it.
2. Add a second NIC
3. Boot it.

Actual results:
The VM is trying to PXE boot. The boot order clearly shows hard drive first.
I tried to put PXE first and save, then hard drive first and save, then boot, with NO success.

Expected results:
- Adding or removing NICs should not change the boot behaviour
- Editing the VM boot order should work.

Additional info:
The workaround I found was this :
- "Unplug" both NICs
- Boot. It is booting on the hard drive
- Shutdown
- "Replug" the NICs
- Boot. It is booting on the hard drive

Comment 1 Red Hat Bugzilla Rules Engine 2015-10-19 11:01:00 UTC
Target release should be placed once a package build is known to fix a issue. Since this bug is not modified, the target version has been reset. Please use target milestone to plan a fix for a oVirt release.

Comment 2 Dan Kenigsberg 2015-11-23 11:41:50 UTC
Can you attach engine.log and vdsm.log?

Meni, can you see something like that?

Comment 3 Michael Burman 2015-11-23 15:14:27 UTC
This is not reproducible with rhel 6.7 and 7.1 guests

Comment 4 Michael Burman 2015-11-23 16:10:00 UTC
Can't reproduce with windows 2008 R2 64 guest as well.
Tested on 3.5.6.2-0.1.el6ev
Thanks,

Comment 5 Dan Kenigsberg 2015-11-24 07:48:58 UTC
Please reopen if this happens again. Please provide Engine, Vdsm, libvirt and qemu versions, as well as engine.log and vdsm.log.
