RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Display in the virt-manager
Description of problem:
virt-manager only displays the non primary video which did not contain the login windows when boot guest with multiple video devices and the primary video devices not qxl.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-1.3.4-1.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.6.0-1.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Running a guest with two video devices:
...
<video>
<model type='vga' ram='16384' heads='1' primary='yes'/>
<alias name='video0'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0'/>
</video>
<video>
<model type='qxl' ram='65536' vram='65536' vgamem='16384' heads='1'/>
<alias name='video1'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x0a' function='0x0'/>
</video>
...
2.Using virt-manager to open the guest, it only shows the non-primary graphic which does not contain login interface and it will lead to no way to access the os's graphic interface. please see the display in the attachment.
Actual results:
virt-manager displays the non-primary video when boot guest with multiple video devices and the primary video devices not qxl
Expected results:
virt-manager should display the primary video which contains the login windows even if the virt-manager not fully support multiple video devices display now.
Additional info:
1.virt-manager displays the primary video when the primary video device is qxl.
2.virt-viewer can displays two videos correctly.
Actually virt-manager displays only the primary video device and only primary monitor of that device. There is no support for multiple monitors in virt-manager.
We need to add support for multiple monitors into virt-manager.
