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 tingting zheng 2014-12-15 08:24:33 UTC
Description
Graphics password disappear after conversion of virt-v2v
Old version of virt-v2v keeps vnc or spice password after conversion.

Version:
virt-v2v-1.28.1-1.17.el7.x86_64
libguestfs-1.28.1-1.17.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Before conversion:set a vnc or spice guest with graphics password.

2.Use virt-v2v to convert the guest:
# virt-v2v -ic xen+ssh://10.66.106.64 -os default -n virbr0 rhel7 -of raw
[   0.0] Opening the source -i libvirt -ic xen+ssh://10.66.106.64 rhel7
[  17.0] Creating an overlay to protect the source from being modified
[  31.0] Opening the overlay
[ 241.0] Initializing the target -o libvirt -os default
[ 241.0] Inspecting the overlay
[ 251.0] Checking for sufficient free disk space in the guest
[ 251.0] Estimating space required on target for each disk
[ 251.0] Converting Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.0 Beta (Maipo) to run on KVM
virt-v2v: This guest has virtio drivers installed.
[ 315.0] Mapping filesystem data to avoid copying unused and blank areas
[ 316.0] Closing the overlay
[ 316.0] Copying disk 1/1 to /var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel7-sda (raw)
    (100.00/100%)
[ 393.0] Creating output metadata
Pool default refreshed

Domain rhel7 defined from /tmp/v2vlibvirt01d9a1.xml

[ 394.0] Finishing off

3.After conversion,try to boot the guest,no graphics password asked before login.

Actual results:
Graphics password disappear after conversion of virt-v2v

Expected results:
Graphics password is kept there after conversion of virt-v2v as old version of virt-v2v does.

Additional info:
After conversion by old version of virt-v2v,vnc or spice password will be asked before login.

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2014-12-15 08:42:03 UTC
It turns out we need to use virDomainGetXMLDesc with the
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE flag, otherwise passwords are not included
in the output.

https://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt-domain.html#virDomainGetXMLDesc

This also requires that we use a r/w connection.

As this should be simple to fix, I'll have a go at fixing this
for RHEL 7.1 (if there is time).

Comment 3 Richard W.M. Jones 2014-12-15 08:45:32 UTC
Old virt-v2v did pass this flag:

    my $dom = new XML::DOM::Parser->parse($domain->get_xml_description(1));

but as you can see it's not exactly clear(!) since Matt used
the value '1' instead of the defined constant.

Comment 8 tingting zheng 2014-12-16 03:14:16 UTC
Tested with:
libguestfs-1.28.1-1.18.el7.x86_64
virt-v2v-1.28.1-1.18.el7.x86_64

1.Prepare a guest with vnc passowrd set on xen server.
2.Use virt-v2v to convert it.
3.After conversion,the password is kept there.

Refer to the above comments,move the bug to VERIFIED.

Hello,

I have installed the latest libguestfs-1.28.1-1.18.el7.x86_64 and there is no virt-v2v binary inside.
Shall i open a new bug for this?
