Description of problem: When set Automatically Open consoles as "For all domains", then Execute #virt-manager --show-domain-performance=1054de4a-e4f3-9f6d-0f8b-79232fc8b3dd -c qemu:///system Then virt-manager will be in running and the virtual machine console display. But what we can see directly on the console is the *terminal*, not the performance information of virtual details. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): # uname -a Linux dhcp-65-85.nay.redhat.com 2.6.32-99.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jan 14 10:46:00 EST 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux virt-manager-0.8.6-1.el6 kernel-2.6.32-99.el6.x86_64 qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.129.el6.x86_64 libvirt-0.8.7-1.el6.x86_64 python-virtinst-0.500.5-1.el6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. In virt-manager, Edit-> Preference, Make VM Details Automatically Open consoles as "For all domains", Then quit virt-manager. 2. Make sure virt-manager is not running.Execute it in the terminal: #virt-manager --show-domain-performance=1054de4a-e4f3-9f6d-0f8b-79232fc8b3dd -c qemu:///system Actual results: What we can see directly on the console is the *terminal*, not the performance information of virtual details. Expected results: Should display the performance information with dynamic grap of domain. The command line should have precedence. Additional info: This bug can be also reproduced in virt-manager-0.8.4-8.el6.noarch python-virtinst-0.500.3-7.el6.noarch Since a regression bug 670735 about automatically open consoles in virt-manager-0.8.6-1.el6, I tried with this older virt-manager (virt-manager-0.8.4-8.el6.noarch). If I set Automatically Open consoles as "For all new domains", then execute the command line, the result is as expected: the performance details will be display with dynamic grap.
Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as an exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Not high priority, defer to 6.2
Upstream dropped the 'open consoles' option and just uses sensible default behavior now, so this is 'fixed' upstream
Fixed in virt-manager-0.9.0-2.el6
this bug can reproduce with:virt-manager-0.8.6-4.el6 verified with: virt-manager-0.9.0-5.el6 python-virtinst-0.600.0-2.el6 libvirt-0.9.4-1.el6 qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.172 step: 1. In virt-manager, Edit-> Preference->VM Details the "Automatically open consoles" removed. 2. Make sure virt-manager is not running.Execute it in the terminal: #virt-manager --show-domain-performance=1054de4a-e4f3-9f6d-0f8b-79232fc8b3dd -c qemu:///system (1054de4a-e4f3-9f6d-0f8b-79232fc8b3dd is the uuid of one guest) the guest console opened and switch to performance window automatically. the bug fixed. Verification passed.
