I will work on a kvm-unit-tests testcsae Hi Paolo, Yes, i still can reproduce it. In the latest acceptance testing which i just finished this afternoon, 7 cases failed as this problem (all for win2012.r2 guest) And, with the scratch build that be provides in bz 1493501, i repeat 30 times, it is ok.
