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.

the full log when start the OVMF guest

Description of problem:

The OVMF guest can not be boot in the machine "intel-5130-16-1.englab.nay.redhat.com". When connect on VNC, the error is "Guest has not initialized the display (yet)" 

This issue only happened in this specific machine. I tried other machine. They work well.

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Boot the guest as follow:

/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -enable-kvm -M q35 -nodefaults -smp 4,cores=2,threads=2,sockets=1 -m 4G -name vm1 \

-drive file=/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd,if=pflash,format=raw,unit=0,readonly=on -drive file=/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_VARS.fd,if=pflash,format=raw,unit=1,readonly=on -debugcon file:/home/test/ovmf1.log -global isa-debugcon.iobase=0x402  \

-vnc :1 -vga qxl -monitor stdio  \

-object rng-random,filename=/dev/urandom,id=rng0 -device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0,id=rng-device0 \

-boot menu=on,splash-time=10000 -drive file=/home/test_guest/rhel-ovmf-7.6-choma/rhel-ovmf-7.6-choma.qcow2,if=none,id=guest-img,format=qcow2,werror=stop,rerror=stop -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=guest-img,id=os-disk,bootindex=1 -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,vhost=on -device rtl8139,netdev=hostnet0,id=net0,mac=00:84:ed:01:00:05

2.connect VNC
# remote-viewer vnc://10.66.144.50:5901.

Actual results:
Guest has not initialized the display (yet)

Expected results:
guest boot as normal 

Additional info:
When boot the guest, the full log is in attachment.

Comment 4 Laszlo Ersek 2018-08-10 13:21:09 UTC
According to the data sheet that I referenced in comment 3 for the Beaker machine named in comment 0, this host does not have EPT:

Therefore this report is a duplicate of bug 1348092.
