Hi,
I have the following domains on my machine, each of them have the graphics tags in them:
virsh list --all Id Name State ---------------------------------- - graphics_domain2 shut off - testdom1 shut off
This symptoms is not seen with Xen, where the xml contains the same UUID. I want to know why is this kind of difference in the behaviour and whether this is expected.
This looks like a libvirt bug. The UUID of a guest should be unique - each guest should have a different one. If you define an XML with the UUID of another guest, the guest should be updated. In this case, a new guest is defined, which is incorrect behavior.
Ok ! One more thing, When we define a guest using the virsh and enumerate KVMRedirectionSAP , the lport of the ElementName/Name will contain the port value in the used in the XML file and the looks something like 5900: -1 (where 5900 is the port value used in the XML). But defining the guest using the DefineSystem() returns a value of -1 : -1 in the ElementName/Name. The DMTF - 1076 does not specify how the value of ElementName/Name filed should be. Is this expected behavior ?
If you modify your XMLs so that the guest name of each is the same, then you will only see one guest.
