Theoretically a VM name can be a valid VM id or uuid. In that case connecting to the VMs may be problematic since virt-viewer selects the VM by its id then by uuid if not found then by its name. Introduce new command line options to cover this situation: "--id" to connect to the VM by its id "--uuid" to connect to the VM by its uuid "--domain-name" to connect to the VM by its name The options are mutually exclusive Resolves: rhbz#1399077 |

Virt Viewer
Virt Viewer provides a graphical viewer for the guest OS display. At this time is supports guest OS using the VNC or SPICE protocols. Further protocols may be supported in the future as user demand dictates. The viewer can connect directly to both local and remotely hosted guest OS, optionally using SSL/TLS encryption.
Virt Viewer is the GTK3 application. Virt Viewer 3.0 was the last release that supported GTK2.
Virt Viewer uses the GTK-VNC (>= 0.4.0) widget to provide a display of the VNC protocol, which is available from
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/gtk-vnc
Virt Viewer uses the SPICE-GTK (>= 0.33) widget to provide a display of the SPICE protocol, which is available from:
https://www.spice-space.org/download.html
Use of either SPICE-GTK or GTK-VNC can be disabled at time
of configure, with --without-gtk-vnc or --without-spice-gtk
respectively.
Virt Viewer uses libvirt to lookup information about the guest OS display. This is available from
Further information about the Virt Viewer application can be found on the Virt Manager website:
