Thanks Paul, I have tried opening it using "remote-viewer", but I get error message as
"Unable to connect to the graphic server /tmp/mozilla_saji0/console.vvCould not connect to 192.168.59.95: No route to host" This has something to do with the permission than, route issues, because I can access the server through the browser as well as I can ping it also I have to see what permissions or port blocked at the ovirt server level Thanks Joseph John
Yes you should use the remote viewer. The manager itself is not running the VMs, the hosts are running the VMs. So what happens when you click on the console button is that it generates a .vv file which your browser then downloads. If you associate remote-viewer with the .vv files it will attempt to connect to the *HOST* running the VM. Now its entirely possible your network topology doesn't allow you to connect to the host, while the manager (engine) is allowed to connect to the host. If this is the case you need to configure a proxy on the engine that forwards to the host. Since we don't know your topology we can't say much more. But in general your browser connects to the engine which shows you the admin UI. Then when you want to connect with a console to a VM, your computer (remote-viewer) tries to connect to the host. The message you are seeing is telling me you can't connect to the host. Alexander

You should use remote-viewer to connect to the console of the VM, it's in the same package and you should pass the connection details to it from the portal(the console.vv file gets created including the otp). Regards, Paul S.

Hi ,I was able to install ovirt, and I am able to create virtual machines and it is running fine, I can see the instance using browser But when I try connecting to the ovirt machine using virt-manager I am getting the following error
"Unable to connect to libvirt. authentication failed: authentication failed Verify that the 'libvirtd' daemon is running on the remote host." Through the browser I am able to see the virtual machines running, is there anything else for me to do, for allowing "Virtual Machine Manager" to work thanksJoseph John
