RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
I got an email from upstream maintainer:

Thomas,

Please pickup this patch for both RHEL 6.4 and RHEL 6.5. Without
this patch IP GET functionality will not work on ws2012 R2 (Windows Blue).

Thank you,

I got the patch from upstream maintainer, but would rather wait couple of days
till it's accepted upstream.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2013-07-12 10:50:06 UTC 
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.  Product
Management has requested further review of this request by
Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat
Enterprise Linux release for currently deployed products.
This request is not yet committed for inclusion in a release.
Comment 5 K. Y. Srinivasan 2013-07-12 11:34:38 UTC 
The bug was exposed when testing on the about to be released ws2012 r2. The following command executed from a power shell window (opened with admin rights):

Get-VMNetworkAdapter -VMName name_of_the_vm

You will see that without this patch, the IP addresses will not be listed. I am assuming here that you have already picked up the kernel vmbus patch that correctly negotiates the protocol version.
Comment 6 lijing 2013-07-15 10:47:38 UTC 
we QE have reproduced this bug with WS 2012 R2

version info:
host: Windows Server 2012 R2
guest: RHEL6.4(2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64)

the step as below:

1. install RHEL6.4 guest
2. check the hypervkvpd status
#service hypervkvpd status
3.Check that the SELinux is enabled on the guest
4. run the command below on host
#Get-VMNetworkAdapter -VMName name_of_the_vm |ft ipaddresses
Comment 9 lijing 2013-09-13 07:46:56 UTC 
verify this bug , install RHEL6.5 x86_64 and i386 guest on WS 2012 R2, the kernel of which is 2.6.32-415.0.1.el6.x86_64/2.6.32-415.0.1.el6.i686 with hypervkvpd-0-0.12.el6.x86_64/hypervkvpd-0-0.12.el6.686 , get correct IP information from guest .
