[ovirt-users] Keyboard mapping VNC

[Jonas Israelsson]

Greetings.

We are under the impression the the keyboard layout for the VNC-server 
is missing from a vm's xml definition, hence the same default layout is 
always used.

We therefore (just to test) created a small host hook adding a static 
keyboard layout, and with the hook, it seem to work as expected as the 
-k switch to kvm is now populated.

vm started with our hook

       <graphics type='vnc' port='5904' autoport='yes' keymap='sv' 
passwd='***********' passwdValidTo='2016-04-11T09:21:09'>
         <listen type='network' address='192.168.42.113' 
network='vdsm-ovirtmgmt' fromConfig='0'/>
       </graphics>


and one without

       <graphics type='vnc' port='5903' autoport='yes' passwd='*****' 
passwdValidTo='1970-01-01T00:00:01'>
         <listen type='network' address='192.168.42.113' 
network='vdsm-ovirtmgmt' fromConfig='0'/>
       </graphics>


oVirt Engine Version: 3.6.3.4-1.el7.centos
Node: oVirt Node Hypervisor release 3.6 (0.999.201512141021.el7.centos)

Is this a known issue ?

Brgds,
