5:49 p.m.
The node is up and running. I can ssh in no problem. VM is started and running ok with 0%
CPU 3% memory.
I don't know how to connect VNC to it, my VNC console option is grayed out.
I also tried " browser plugin" option by installing spice-xpi on my RHEL6 (which
runs the firefox browser). Now when the console is launched, a popup window shows up but
then an error " Unable to connect to the graphic server".

downloaded the cert from http://<my-engine>/ovirt-engine/ca.crt. This time
the console window " spice javascript client" showed up in the firefox
(24.2.0) but it stays gray. Nothing can be seen.

just to rule out things:
- is the geust working correctly for you (ssh?)
- does it happen to consume 100% cpu?
- does vnc work for you correctly for this guest?
