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 XiaoyunHu 2016-04-29 10:51:14 UTC 
Description of problem:
Some issues with "--show-domain-creator"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-manager-1.3.2-1.el7.noarch


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.There are two connections in virt-manager and both set autoconnect.
2.Run the command "virt-manager --show-domain-creator -c qemu:///system"

Actual results:
1.The Virtual Machine Manager dialog pop up and the vms of the connection"qemu:///system" are not listed.
2.Both of the connections have connected.

Expected results:
--show-DIALOG-WINDOW
  Display the corresponding "DIALOG-WINDOW" when launching"virt-manager". This function implies --no-conn-autostart and the manager window will not be shown at startup in this case.
  The following "DIALOG-WINDOW" options are currently available:
    --show-domain-creator
      Display the wizard for creating new virtual machines

1.The Virtual Machine Manager dialog pop up and the vms of the connection "qemu:///system" are listed here.
2.As the man page shown, " This function implies --no-conn-autostart and the manager window will not be shown at startup in this case", only the connection qemu:///system should be connected.
3.As "This function implies --no-conn-autostart and the manager window will not be shown at startup in this case" in the man page and bug 1069060 shown, it's better to add some specification for "--show-domain-creator" in man page because of the appearance of Virtual Machine Manager dialog.

Upstream commit:

commit bf99c0ce82e306284b3640f86ea484e5fd55bb02

    virt-manager: fix --show-domain-creator to not depend on manager window
    
    Commit a0c2fdf4 fixed a bug that there was no way how to close the app.
    
    The original issue isn't present anymore but reverting that commit isn't
    enough.  We need to increment/decrement window count while
    showing/closing the create window in order to not exit right after
    the create window is opened.
Comment 3 XiaoyunHu 2016-06-23 03:19:14 UTC 
I can reproduce this bug with package:
virt-manager-1.3.2-1.el7.noarch

Steps are the same as description above.

Then try to verify with new build:
virt-manager-1.4.0-1.el7.noarch

Steps:
1.There are two connections in virt-manager and both set autoconnect.
2.Run the command "virt-manager --show-domain-creator -c qemu:///system"
3.Click "cancel" button to close the wizard and run "ps -ef|grep virt-manager".
4.Lauch virt-manager.
#virt-manager

Results:
After step2, Display the wizard for creating new virtual machines and the manager window will not be shown as the manpage shown.
After step3, the wizard windows disappear and virt-manager quit successfully.
#ps -ef|grep virt-manager
root 6644 4160 0 10:15 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto virt-manager
After step4, virt-manager launched successfully.

According to the result above in the latest version of virt-manager, move this bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
