Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

Description Markus Armbruster 2013-09-27 11:00:36 UTC
Document URL: 
http://documentation-devel.engineering.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html-single/Virtualization_Administration_Guide/index.html

Section Number and Name: 
Chapter 19. qemu-kvm Whitelist
Section 19.6. Device options

Describe the issue:
We added device virtio-scsi-pci in 6.3, but forgot to whitelist it.

Suggestions for improvement: 
Please add this item:

* virtio-scsi-pci - tech preview in 6.3, supported since 6.4
  * vectors
  * indirect_desc
  * event_idx
  * num_queues
  * addr

Additional information: 
Device might not be supported only for all guests.  I'll find out and
report back.

Comment 2 Markus Armbruster 2013-09-30 11:19:36 UTC
Since 6.4, the device is supported for guests running RHEL 6.4 and newer, and Windows 2008, 7 and newer.
