Description of problem: When I have a Windows 2008 Server 32-bit as a guest, if I have >1 display and I restart the guest from the Start button, the virt-viewer window goes black and on the first display, and then you see the text "Waiting for display 1." The other displays that should display this are all black. If I close virt-viewer and relaunch it from the UP, either I get black screens on the displays or an error, "Could not connect to the agent on the guest, it may be unresponsive or not installed. As a result, some of the features may not work." Click ok and you get the same scenario with the first display black, and it now has "Connected to graphics server" and will stay there. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEV-M: RHEV-M 3.3 (is26) Guest: Windows 2008 Server 32-bit (Not R2) rhev-guest-tools-iso-3.3-7.noarch.rpm Windows 7 client 64-bit mingw64-virt-viewer-0.5.615.el6_5 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.

When I shut the VM down and bring it back up, the RHEV* services are running and set to automatic on boot. Moving to vdagent.
I just tested this with a fresh install of win2k8 (not r2), fully up to date. I installed rhev-guest-tools-iso-3.3-14, set up 2 screens. I made sure c&p was working, restarted the VM from the start menu, and checked that c&p was still working after that. I connected with remote-viewer from f20, and the VM was created locally in virt-manager. Can you still reproduce this?
Alternatively, could you give me access to a RHEV instance with a win2k8 VM or ISO? I could not find such an ISO in the instance I usually use, that's why I tested in virt-manager.
I will retest.
Christophe, I will retest once https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1135054 is cleared and will install the QXL driver.
We don't support Windows Server versions as SPICE guests, so I'll close this bug. Feel free to reopen if you think this is not correct.
