Description Tim Speetjens 2016-10-12 07:13:19 UTC

Description of problem:
When debugging SPICE issues, that are reproducible only when two spice connections are open, the single log file written to by both becomes very difficult to read.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Windows SPICE client, packaged in
rhevm-spice-client-x64-msi-3.6-6.el6.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup SPICE client debug logging
2. Open multiple connections
3. Watch logging to appear inside this file for both windows/connections

Actual results:
All logging appears in one single log file

Expected results:
Each window/spice client process should log in its own log file

This bug has not been marked as blocker for oVirt 4.3.0.
Since we are releasing it tomorrow, January 29th, this bug has been re-targeted to 4.3.1.

Comment 5 Uri Lublin 2019-02-05 17:44:21 UTC

One can redirect stdout/stderr of each remote-viewer instance to a different file, for example:
   remote-viewer --spice-debug console_to_VM1.vv > logVM1 2>&1
   remote-viewer --spice-debug console_to_VM2.vv > logVM2 2>&1

Comment 6 Sandro Bonazzola 2019-03-26 10:14:42 UTC

4.3.1 has been release a while ago as RHV 4.3 Beta 2, re-targeting to 4.3.3 for re-evaluation

Comment 8 Martin Tessun 2019-11-25 08:17:38 UTC

As this seems to be a rare usecase and there is a workaround? See c#5, Closing this RFE.
