Description Ameya Charekar 2016-03-24 23:00:22 UTC
Description of problem:
If we change any property of running vm that requires vm shutdown and start, then orange icon appears with message "Server with newer configure next run" but once vm started after shutdown newer changes will not take effect and vm will continue to use older setting.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager Version: 3.6.3.4-0.1.el6

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change any setting that requires vm shutdown and start e.g. check "Enable VirtIO serial console" flag of running vm.
2. Then vm will have orange icon with message "Server with newer configure next run".
3. Once vm starts after shutdown orange icon will disappear but vm will continue to use older setting i.e. "Enable VirtIO serial console" flag will be unchecked.

Actual results:
vm continue to use older setting.

Expected results:
vm should start with newer setting.

Additional info:
Currently to change settings need to turn off vm, make changes and then start vm.
