Both (Jarod's and mine) are up again. My builder has stability problems
since I upgraded to F12 on the host. I have now again disabled all the
virtio devices. I was then no longer able to obtain a dhcp address using
libvirtd. I have now a static address in my builder and Thorsten
restarted the main plague server and now finally both are available
again.
