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.

Try to reproduce this bug by qemu-kvm&&spice-server&&kernel:
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.312.el6.x86_64
spice-server-0.10.1-2.el6.x86_64
2.6.32-303.el6.x86_64

qemu-kvm runs well, can't got the error.
Could please tell me your spice-sever version or detail record of this issue.

I meant it the other way around, exactly as Gerd understood. The problem is that seamless-migration=on requires newer spice-server so if older spice-server is used, qemu _should_ exit with error instead of quiet proceeding.
Comment 12 Qunfang Zhang 2012-10-09 05:28:36 UTC 
I can not reproduce as well but checked the build log of qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.320.el6 in brewweb, it does require spice-server 0.12+ to build qemu-kvm for 6.4.

In unfixed qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.318.el6:
In the build log:
'spice-server-devel >= 0.10.1-2.el6' 
DEBUG util.py:256:  0:spice-server-devel-0.10.1-10.el6.x86_64

In qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.320.el6:
'spice-server-devel >= 0.12.0'
DEBUG util.py:256:    spice-server-devel.x86_64 0:0.12.0-1.el6          

So, I will set this bug to verified. Please correct me if I am wrong.
