Hi all

I edited /etc/ovirt-engine/osinfo.conf.d/00-defaults.properties and added the lines:
os.rhel_6x64.devices.display.protocols.value = spice/qxl
os.rhel_7x64.devices.display.protocols.value = spice/qxl
os.rhel_8x64.devices.display.protocols.value = spice/qxl
By the way it is recommended  to create a new file to edit these values :
# * value overriding -
# Supports versions of configuration through file prefix
# e.g - all or some entries in this file can be overridden by entries in
# 10-osinfo.properties

And its working now.  Is this OK or is there a better way to handle this?
This is one option, which drops all other options when you do this(VGA, Bochs, spice/vnc..).
How about trying to edit the Blank template, changing it to SPICE/QXL?

Thanks

Hey all

We've just updated to RHV4.4SP1 (aka 4.5) from v4.4 and now our ansible workflows are failing with:
cannot run VM. Selected display type is not supported by the operating system

The OS are RHEL6 and RHEL7 (no, I can't change this as the software stack only works with these)

I couldn't find anything in the ansible ovirt collection to change from VGA to QXL.

Any ideas on how I can make QXL the default instead of VGA?  Maybe a DB change?

Thanks
