Re: [ovirt-users] Spice on Ovirt 3.4.4 Windows 2012 Guests
Hi Gary,
I can't tell you what happens on upgrade but in order to be able to
choose Spice consoles for win8/win2012 guests, drop this file
to /etc/ovirt-engine/osinfo.conf.d:
cat > /etc/ovirt-engine/osinfo.conf.d/99-spice_for_win8_and_win2012.properties <<
EOF
os.windows_8.devices.display.protocols.value = qxl/qxl,vnc/cirrus
os.windows_8x64.devices.display.protocols.value = qxl/qxl,vnc/cirrus
os.windows_2012x64.devices.display.protocols.value = qxl/qxl,vnc/cirrus
EOF
and restart the engine.
You won't be able to use qxl driver (and by extension multi-monitor and
continuous resolution change) but the features provided by spice-vdagent
should continue to work for you.
Regards,
David

Hi
We are currently running Ovirt 3.3.5 in production, currently our
Windows Guests are using spice for the console. I have noticed that in
our test environment running 3.4.4 that this option cannot be selected
for Windows 2012 guests.
Does anyone know what will happen to the console on VMs running
windows 2012 if we upgrade to 3.4.4 on our production environment ?
Will it simply not work resulting in us having to power down the
affected VMs or will the existing VMs carry on working with the spice
console setting ?
Thanks
Gary Lloyd
