I'm assuming that you're running virt-manager, otherwise
interfaceGetXMLDesc wouldn't be getting called so much. There could be
some strange interaction between netlink and interfaces with ":" in
the
name. I'm just packing up to leave on a 5 day trip, though, and don't
have time to investigate right now, but there are some things you can
look at:
1) try running "virsh iface-list --all", then "virsh
iface-dumpxml
--inactive <name>" where <name> is the name of each interface
displayed
in the iface-list command. See which are successful.
2) also try "virsh iface-dumpxml <name>" (ie withough the
--inactive)
for each.
3) send the results of the above, as well as the output of "ifconfig
-a"
4) also the output of "ls /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* | while
read f; do echo =====; echo $f; cat $f; done"
Something from that could help in reproducing the problem.
