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 Bhavna Sarathy 2011-04-05 19:28:10 UTC

LXC support to have support across the stack in kernel, libvirt, virt-manager, and virtinst.  This allows for a consistent user experience with both KVM an LXC using the existing Virtualization management tools.  The virt-manager should allow for a user to create Linux Containers.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-04-05 19:44:03 UTC

Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
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.

Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2011-07-28 15:30:57 UTC

Fixed in virt-manager-0.9.0-2.el6

Comment 6 Cole Robinson 2011-08-09 15:44:42 UTC

Hmm, I haven't tried reproducing the crash yet, but better to file a separate bug now and when I get to it I can dup if necc. Thanks

Comment 9 Cole Robinson 2011-09-27 15:05:07 UTC

Yeah I'm really not sure what the issue is, but I know there are some virt-manager crasher issues on fedora 15. It doesn't sound like what you are doing is the same 728845, so I think a separate bug should be filed.

It's unclear to me what the other issues are still unresolved, can you summarize? Thanks

Comment 10 Min Zhan 2011-09-28 02:44:25 UTC

Thanks Cole. No issues any more for this bug. I have filed a fedora bug 741819 to track the issue mentioned in Comment 8. 

According to Comment 5 and Comment 7, Move it to VERIFIED.

Comment 11 Cole Robinson 2011-11-07 22:34:51 UTC
