[Users] Correct way to change graphics adapter?

Hi, What is the proper way to change the graphics adapter of a VM? I know that oVirt uses qemu and I know qemu configuration, but where in oVirt do I change it? I found VDSM-Hooks/qemucmdline, but that can't be the correct way? Can I change the qemu xml somewhere? TIA mad

I found VDSM-Hooks/qemucmdline, but that can't be the correct way? The before_vm_start hook should be the one you'd like to handle This will give you the ability to modify the passed XML and VDSM will use the returned one.
Can I change the qemu xml somewhere?
