RHEV : Windows 7 guest installation goes fine but on first boot vm switchs to pause state.

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • Trying to install Windows 7 guest ob a RHEV 3.X environment. Installation goes fine. No problem with Initial boot . Windows does some configuration settings and reboots And that's basically where the VM ends. It will then automatically end up in the "Paused" state, with no way to actually get it running.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Virtualizatoion 3.X
  • Windows 7 as guest operating system
