Hello,
I have a oVirt installation with 6 CentOS 6.4 hosts. Some (not all) hosts are
receiving these error messages, at a frequency of once every other minute:
[root@vhost1 ~]# grep "source address" /var/log/messages | tail
Aug 17 11:19:20 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
Aug 17 11:21:24 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
Aug 17 11:23:29 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
Aug 17 11:25:34 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
Aug 17 11:27:39 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
Aug 17 11:29:44 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
Aug 17 11:31:49 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
Aug 17 11:33:54 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
Aug 17 11:35:59 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
Aug 17 11:38:04 vhost1 kernel: em1: received packet with own address as source
address
These error messages are accompanied with loss of connectivity, with duration
varies between a few seconds to minutes. The loss of connectivity would start
just before the above error message.
I don't *think* it's hardware because the "received packet with own address"
error message would disappear from one of the hosts after a while. These error
messages are also present whether or not any VM is running on the particular
host.
Here are some configurations:
