Applying settings for running vm doesn't work

[karaluh]

As in summary. Dialog box appears saying, that the settings cannot be applied immidiately, and they are deffered till the next vm shutdown. However, when preforming the shutdown, the changes aren't applied. Shutdown is done by virsh, not virt-manager.

What do you mean by "Shutdown is done by virsh"?

Are you expecting virt-manager to change the settings at shut down if you use a completely different tool to actually do the shut down?

Please give detailed steps on how to reproduce this issue. Thanks!

Exactly that. I was under the impression this is possible. Can't you share settings, send signals or whatever?

This is an upstream issue. Please file an upstream bug for this issue here:

http://virt-manager.org/page/BugReporting

And when done, link the bug to this one. Thanks.

I am unable to reproduce this.

I start a VM. I change memory options. I get a dialog saying that changes will be done after shutdown.
In a console, I do "virsh destroy myvm", and when I look at virt-manager, the changes have been applied.

Please give the exact steps you are using that make you see this problem.

Thanks!

Strange, I'm unable to reproduce anymore.
