Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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 Markus Armbruster 2017-02-07 11:07:56 UTC
Description of problem:
qemu-info.html section "3.5.1 Commands" documents __com.redhat_screendump instead of __com.redhat_qxl_screendump

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. View usr/share/doc/qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2/qemu-doc.html
2. Search for _screendump
3.

Actual results:
Search finds
‘__com.redhat_screendump id filename’

    Save screen from qxl device id into PPM image filename. 

Expected results:
Should instead find
‘__com.redhat_qxl_screendump id filename’

    Save screen from qxl device id into PPM image filename. 

Additional info:
The typo is in qemu-monitor.hx.

Comment 2 Markus Armbruster 2017-02-07 12:46:35 UTC
Another doc bug:

‘__com.redhat_drive_add’

    Create a drive similar to -device if=none. 

This should be "similar to -drive if=none".
