Actually I'm encountering a huge problem that I'll explain in steps, in order to be clear and discursive
. First of all, I've deployed eve-ng Community Edition 2.0.3-92 on a KVM with those specs:Server DELL PowerEdge R420
CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2420 0 @ 1.90GHz (24 Core total)
RAM: 24GB RAM
HDD: 4x 2TB
All was working fine, KVM virtualization was working well and i was able to deploy qemu images like PaloAlto (PANOS-8.0.5) with qemu-options accell=kvm without any problem.
After an internal company upgrade, i've decided to migrate this tool on a new server with better specs (with Ovirt 4.2 instead of KVM):
SuperMicro Server
CPU: Intel (R) Xeon (R) Platinum 8160T @ 2.10GHz (96 Core Total)
RAM: 256 GB (16x16) DDR4 2666Mhz Samsung M393A2K40BB2-CTD
HDD: x 2 Seagate ST500LM021-1KJ152 SATA 3.0 500GB
SSD: x 2 SSD Samsung SSD 850 PRO 1TB
NVMe: x 4 KXG50ZNV512G TOSHIBA 512GB (RAID0)
Before migration eve-ng had 12 cores, 12 GB RAM and 90 GB HDD. After migration he has now 16 Core, 32GB RAM and RAID0 100GB.
On Ovirt Pass-Through Host CPU is activated on VM, CPU nesting is activated too and after your new release (2.0.5-95) those are eve-info command logs:

However, after update/migration, i'm not able to deploy qemu images with accell=kvm enabled anymore. With same example PANOS-8.0.5 i'm able to run this qemu image only with this setting removed.
Thinking on a migration problem, i've deployed a new eve-ng VM with same specs but problem is still present.
Have you any idea on what might be the problem? In attachment you'll find VM Ovirt configuration:
Thanks for your support.
