Unidentified network issue with virtio NIC cards in Windows 2008 R2 VM on RHEV
Issue
- All the windows 2008 R2 VM has an issue with the VirtIO Network card driver.
- Whenever we restart the vm the network card had a yellow sign after the server reboot.
Which meant that windows did not identify the network interface or there was no driver for it. - So we go to the network manager in windows and disable and enable network card, then it works again.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.0
- Windows 2008 R2 VM
- Virtio NIC
