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.

Comment 1 David Jaša 2012-04-25 15:35:50 UTC 
Maybe a bit more info would be helpful. So in remote-viewer mode, an error pop-up should be created saying what went wrong. 

I'm not really sure what should happen when in virt-viewer mode (imagine one virt-viewer running, another one connecting to the same VM and stealing its desktop, first one detecting disconnect and thus reconnecting and taking display back and so forth...).
Comment 2 Daniel Berrangé 2012-04-25 15:42:34 UTC 
I don't really see that there is anything that needs doing here. virt-viewer  & remote-viewer already handles guest disconnect messages from spice-gtk. By default they will exit unless the --reconnect flag was given, in which case they try to reconnect to the desktop
Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 08:49:49 UTC 
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-11 02:01:12 UTC 
This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.
Comment 5 Daniel Berrangé 2012-07-26 17:32:36 UTC 
Please provide more info on why current behaviour is wrong as per comment #2
Comment 6 David Jaša 2012-07-27 08:08:18 UTC 
Seen with from a bit of distance, it looks like proposed changes solve the problem of tcp stream disruption only partialy if there is no heartbeat in spice protocol, so closing it myself as wontfix...
