Doc Text:
Prior to this update, when a SPICE console was launched from the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization User Portal with the 'Native Client' invocation method and 'Open in Full Screen' selected, the display of the guest virtual machine were not always configured to match the client displays. After this update, the SPICE console will show a full-screen guest display for each client monitor.

Description Robert McSwain 2014-03-13 21:37:19 UTC
Description of problem:
1. From the UserPortal, with the "Full screen" checkbox enabled, a 2nd display did not enable automatically as it should by default. Selecting "2" from the Displays menu on Remote Viewer was required.

2. After manually enabling the 2nd display, that display did not auto-sense the proper screen resolution.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEV 3.3.1
RHEL 6.5 guest
SPICE Console

How reproducible: 100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log into UserPortal
2. Check the Full Screen checkbox 
3. Open a VM
4. The second display does not appear automatically

Actual results:
The second display must be manually enabled and the screen resolution is not as it should be set.

Expected results:
The second display appears in full screen

Robert,

what is the launch method Browser plugin/Native and what client OS is used?
There were some bugs I can point you to If I know that.

The important thing for RHEL6.5 guest is to have Spice agent/RHEV agent/QXL driver installed and operational on the guest which means that RHEV agent reports to the RHEVM that QXL driver is installed ont the guest and This can be seen in RHEVM webadmind in Aplllication tab of VM details.

Comment 3 Jonathon Jongsma 2014-03-19 20:18:07 UTC
per discussion with byount, it sounds like this is launched in native client mode. The vv file format does not currently have a parameter for specifying auto-conf, so it just uses basic fullscreen mode.  We'd need to add an auto-conf param to the vv file format, and the user portal would have to include that param in its vv-file.

we will address this issue in rhel 6.6 first( see bz 1083203 ).

Comment 15 David Blechter 2014-05-05 13:24:07 UTC
moving to 3.5, and propose for 3.4.z. The 3.4.z will be built following the 3.4 release. This was discussed and agreed with Peter Manzella
