hi guys,
I updated to qemu-kvm-common-ev-2.12.0-18.el7_6.1.1.x86_64 (also libvirt) and my Centos 6.10 kvm guests now do not start.
Funnily enough Win10 guest are fine, only Centoses cannot start, silently & without any errors.
Any care to comment?
many thanks, L.

It looks like you installed CentOS 7 packages on a CentOS 6 system. I'm amazed it even worked. Try removing the packages and re-installing the appropriate packages for CentOS 6.

Oh, never mind me, I missed that you were saying that your *GUESTS* don't start.
Did you do a full update to CentOS 7.6.1810, or just the libvirt/qemu packages?

yes, I see my sentence was not complete, although it non-explicitly said Centos 7 (qemu package version).
So, host is Centos 7 updated to the latest (no fasttrack repo, but cr(rolling) yes) and quests are(if not gone now?) Centos 6.10.
virsh start such a guest okey, complains of nothing, no errors but guess does not boot. I see qemu BIOS and boot menu but when it comes to booting the OS/grub/kernel, then this does not happen.
Checking qcow image with qemu confirms images are free of errors, etc. I can mount these Centos guests okey, filesystem seems good.
I do not want to downgrade just yet, but will have to check that option soon.
