Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
A new qspice package is now available.
Description
The Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments (SPICE) is
a remote display protocol designed for virtual environments. SPICE users
can view a virtualized desktop or server from the local system or any
system with network access to the server. SPICE is available for a variety
of machine architectures and operating systems. SPICE is used in Red Hat
Enterprise Linux for viewing virtualized guests running on the KVM
hypervisor or on Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisors.
Users requiring remote display capabilities for KVM hypervisors should
install this new package.
