Do you mean > that virt-viewer connects to a libvirt domain, while remote-viewer > connects to a VM ? Pretty much. And in case of virt-viewer, if the domain is up but the VM is not, it will wait for the VM anyways, doesn't matter if you pass --wait or not. You can do a simple test: virt-viewer -c qemu:///system $vm_name_that_is_powered_off ... you will see that we wait for the VM to start in any case, and that's correct according to the docs: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/virt-viewer.git/tree/man/virt-viewer.pod#n43 > Is the rest of the code consistant with its use of > domain VS VM ?

I do believe it is, but feel free to just ignore the patch if it doesn't make sense for you. > > Christophe > Best Regards, -- Fabiano Fidêncio _______________________________________________ virt-tools-list mailing list virt-tools-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/virt-tools-list
