Hi Michal,
What I found was that when I restarted the machine and did a virsh edit command to see the xml config, I see that it is was not actually changed. This suggests why I saw 256 again after restarting.
So now I tried again to edit the xml via virsh edit command and used the following to set the parameters.
<driver name='qemu' txmode='iothread' ioeventfd='on' event_idx='off' queues='1' rx_queue_size='512' tx_queue_size='512'>
</driver>
It was not accepted and I got the error saying :
error: XML document failed to validate against schema: Unable to validate doc against /usr/share/libvirt/schemas/domain.rng
Extra element devices in interleave
Element domain failed to validate content
What does this imply? I have two more other interfaces and do I have to the same to them also?
Btw, there are now logs generated now in the domain log or libvirtd log
Best Regards,
Ashish Kurian
