Hi, I notice the VMs are not using the virtio type NICs, but some "Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+". In my experience the virtio device is quite stable, any reason why it's not default? I see that for block device virtio is default.
This is something we should look at changing by default I think. There have are some kernel bugs precluding this: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42829 But Red Hat based kernels should be good in this area. It seems like it's a big global flag in nova.conf currently: libvirt_use_virtio_for_bridges = True Ideally that would be a property of the guest image, i.e. a tag in glance or something. thanks, Pádraig. _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud
