Hi,
i have a weird problem. I have a vm (KVM) which seems to run fine. I believe the respective config file for this vm is /etc/libvirt/qemu/MausDB.xml. This is it:
=========================================================

=============================================================
As you see, the vm has one NIC. Its MAC-Address is: '52:54:00:37:92:03'.
I also see that MAC when i edit the config via virsh.
But when i boot that vm, it has a nic with another MAC: '52:54:00:37:92:B2' ??? lspci shows me just one nic in the vm.
This MAC-Address is also visible in the Virtual Machine Manager.
Pictures you find here: https://hmgubox.helmholtz-muenchen.de:8001/d/51feb02c02/
I thought the xml-file in /etc/libvirt/qemu ist the only responsable one. It is that one which is configured when i issue a 'edit domain' in virsh. Or ?
Where does the VMM stores the configuration of the domains ?
I found another xml: /var/run/libvirt/qemu/MausDB.xml . Inside it there is the MAC the booted vm has. What is the purpose of this xml ?
Also ps inside the host shows the MAC which is in the booted vm:
root 28237 4.8 2.4 2886084 2416116 ?

Can anyone help sorting this out ?
