Hi Michal, thanks for your note. I have cloned a bug for documentation to make sure this is tracked for documentation (BZ#1203929)
To ensure future instances get picked up by the documentation team, please email rhev-docs or let Andrew Dahms know. We only really use the doc text field for errata and release note but not for guides like Install, Admin, Technical, etc.

Many thanks for your help,
Julie

I just saw that Nisim has opened a docs bug already (BZ#1198488). My apologies.

Cheers,

polarion test case sent for review: 
https://polarion.engineering.redhat.com/polarion/#/project/RHEVM3/workitem?id=RHEVM3-12206

Please review/confirm test case attached.

Verification on rhevm 3.6.2-2:

Following the attached Polarion test case.

Setup preparation:
=================
Prepare sealed VMs with the next OS types (also validate VM OS type is correct):
Windows XP
Windows 2003 - wasn't tested
Windows 7
Windows 2008
Windows 2008 R2
Windows 2012 - wasn't tested
Windows 2012 R2 - wasn't tested
Windows 8 - wasn't tested.

2. Edit each VM and configure: 
sysprep > configure time zone: Tonga standard time
sysprep > VM hostname equal to VM name.
sysprep > sysprep - Paste here answer file & set computer Name to "answerfile_name": 
For Windows XP, Windows 2003 the sysprep.inf file 
For Windows 7,  Windows 2008,  Windows 2008 R2, Windows 2012, Windows 2012 R2,      Windows 8 the Unattended.xml 

Test steps:
==========
1. VM -> run once -> check attach floppy -> open dropbox -> select [sysprep] and click "OK".
2. Wait for VM to run and open console.

Required results:
================
1. Verify inside the VM the file in Floppy disk is
sysprep.inf file for Windows XP, Windows 2003,
Unattend.xml for Windows 7,  Windows 2008,  Windows 2008 R2, Windows 2012, Windows 2012 R2, Windows 8, 
containing the values inserted in sysprep field. 
2. Verify:
Timezone is Nukualofa (Tonga).
VM computer Name is "answerfile_name"

Actual results:
==============
windows 7 - guest has Unattend.xml file attached in it's floppy with correct values same as what inserted in sysprep field (in the VM run once->initial run dialog). Time zone parameter updated. computer name updated by the sysprep file.

windows XP - guest has sysprep.ini file attached in it's floppy with correct values same as what inserted in sysprep field (in the VM run once->initial run dialog). However Time zone parameter, and computer name were not updated by the sysprep file and seem to contain original windows setup values - BZ 1301326
Also had this windows XP VM name validation bug: BZ 1301325

windows 2008 - guest has Unattend.xml file attached in it's floppy with correct values same as what inserted in sysprep field (in the VM run once->initial run dialog). Time zone parameter updated. computer name updated by the sysprep file.
Encountered though this bug, that in run once VM was trying to load from network: BZ 1301334

windows 2008 R2 - guest has Unattend.xml file attached in it's floppy with correct values same as what inserted in sysprep field (in the VM run once->initial run dialog). However Time zone parameter, and computer name were not updated by the sysprep file and seem to contain original windows setup values - BZ 1301368
 
Based on these results, of having the correct sysprep file attached for various windows types, we can move this bug to verified,
Unless you find further testing required?

fine with me,
the files are corrected.

Correction to rhevm version of verification. should be rhevm-3.6.2-10, and not rhevm-3.6.2-2.
