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 Cole Robinson 2014-12-17 18:34:41 UTC
See fedora bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1135488

If we default to adding 4 usbredir devices, we fill up all the emulated USB2 slots, and directly assigned devices are forced to fall back to USB1

This upstream commit changes the default to 2 usbredir devices, we should pull it into RHEL:

    guest: Limit number of default usb redirdevs to 2 (bug 1135488)

Comment 6 CongDong 2015-01-12 09:45:53 UTC
With virt-manager-1.1.0-10.el7.noarch

1. #virt-manager 
2. install a guest
3. double click the guest to open it, click "Details" button
4. check the hardware list

Result:
there are 4 usb redirector devices in the list
"USB Redirector 1"
"USB Redirector 2"
"USB Redirector 3"
"USB Redirector 4"

Verify with virt-manager-1.1.0-11.el7.noarch

Result:
Just two usb redirector devices in the list
"USB Redirector 1"
"USB Redirector 2"

Do you think the steps are enough to verify this bug?

Comment 7 Giuseppe Scrivano 2015-01-12 11:43:11 UTC
yes, these steps show there are only two usb redirector devices added by default.

Comment 8 CongDong 2015-01-12 11:54:32 UTC
As comment 6 and comment 7, move to VERIFIED
