Message-ID: <48CAA711.8060302@theplayboymansion.net> (raw)

Hi all,

I'm running ~13 virtual machines in production on KVM 62 (unfortunately
the best ubuntu-stable can provide for me :/) and i've noticed a lot of
TX overruns, is this something i should be worried about? Are my
machines losing data?

These machines are all bridged with options like this:

-net nic,macaddr=00:16:3e:00:00:05,vlan=0,model=e1000 -net
tap,fd=17,script=,vlan=0 (where fd differs for each machine)

ifconfig output enclosed below:
