Hello,
AFAIK, aliases cannot be set for Graphics devices. I tried this very simple experiment
with libvirt 1.2.4 (from virt-preview on F20)
relevant part of the input xml:
<graphics type='spice' port='-1' autoport='yes'
listen='127.0.0.1'>
<listen type='address' address='127.0.0.1'/>
<alias name='display.0'/>
</graphics>
<graphics type='vnc' port='-1' autoport='yes'
listen='127.0.0.1'>
<listen type='address' address='127.0.0.1'/>
<alias name='display.1'/>
</graphics>
# virsh -c qemu:///system
virsh # create testdom_spice_vnc_aliases.xml # see attachment
Domain fedora19 created from testdom_spice_vnc_aliases.xml
virsh # dumpxml fedora19 # only relevant part, see attachment for full output
[...]
<graphics type='spice' port='5900' autoport='yes'
listen='127.0.0.1'>
<listen type='address' address='127.0.0.1'/>
</graphics>
<graphics type='vnc' port='5901' autoport='yes'
listen='127.0.0.1'>
<listen type='address' address='127.0.0.1'/>
</graphics>
[...]
So, are really aliases not allowed for the Graphics Devices or am I doing something
wrong?
If aliases aren't allowed, any plans to support them?
Note that in addition to what Eric said, the <graphics> tags don't represent
actual guest devices, so the concept of device aliases doesn't really apply
here.
Regards,
Daniel
