Hi habdi, What's your Hyper-V host version? I have tested it in our functional test of snapshot3 (kernel-2.6.18-343.el5 i386). However, there is no this issue. Just now I failed to reproduce it with hypervkvpd-0-0.7.el5 on our Hyper-V host. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Host: Windows 2008 R2 Hyper-V Server Core Hyper-V Version: 6.1.7600.16385 Guest: RHEL5.9 i386 (kernel-2.6.18-343.el5 i386) Hypervkvpd package Name: hypervkvpd-0-0.7.el5 Pv drivers: [root@localhost ~]# lsmod |grep hv_* hv_netvsc 25665 0 hid_base_hv 68177 1 hid_hyperv hv_utils 12001 0 hv_storvsc 17601 2 hv_vmbus 30265 4 hv_netvsc,hid_hyperv,hv_utils,hv_storvsc
The hypervkvpd package is not a part of "RHEL 5.9 Beta Snapshot 3". Changing the component to "releng".
Thanks Tomas , i will recheck with RC release .
hypervkvpd-0-0.7.el5 is a part of RHEL 5.9 Beta Snapshot 5 now.

So when i install a RHEL 5.9 GA, it still does not auto install hvkvpd . rpm is available to install , but it should have been installed while installation of RHEL 5.9 OS .

The hypervkvpd package is in the Virtualization group with the name 'Hyper-V'. Please choose it when install the guest.
