Description Jim Wildman 2016-11-02 19:05:44 UTC

Description of problem:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-virtualization/4.0/single/rhevm-shell-guide#rhevmshellrc_Configuration states

"The .rhevmshellrc is a configuration file that is automatically created and populated when the user first connects to the ovirt-shell."

However, running ovirt-shell creates ~/.ovirtshellrc

ovirt-shell ignores all settings in .rhevmshellrc


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[rhevm.home ~]# rpm -q ovirt-engine-cli
ovirt-engine-cli-3.6.8.1-1.el7ev.noarch

How reproducible:
run ovirt-shell for the first time

Comment 1 Juan Hernández 2016-11-03 09:11:46 UTC

For version 4 of RHV it was decided to use the same package names that are used upstream. For example, the rhevm-cli package was renamed to ovirt-engine-cli, to preserve the upstream names. A side effect of this change is that the name of the configuration file is also different, it used to be .rhevmshellrc and it is now .ovirtshellrc, like upstream. I think that this shouldn't be changed, we should rather update the documentation, thus I will move the bug to the documentation component. Please comment if you disagree.

I recently updated the file name while working on BZ#1356941. The update will be published soon. 

Closing this bug as a duplicate.
