Re: [ovirt-users] Using a free-standing Spice viewer

Thanks for the info Dan. If that's what it takes I'll need to use a different method. The one you describe is not only very messy but extremely breakable and error prone (e.g. if the VM migrates to another host). regards, John On 11/10/14 02:02, Dan Yasny wrote: The steps are: 1. Find the VM's UUID in the API https://rhevm/ovirt-engine/api/vms?search=VMNAME 2. Find the VM's current host and spice ports: https://rhevm/ovirt-engine/api/vms/UUID/ Look for the <display> section - it will hold the host IP or FQDN, and the spice ports 3. Issue a spice ticket via https://rhevm/ovirt-engine/api/vms/UUID/ticket 4. Connect with a spice client (remote-viewer or spicec) with the target being HOST:PORT and the ticket you issued as password All this can be scripted via the API or the engine CLI Hope this helps Dan On Thu, Oct 9, 2014 at 5:03 PM, John Gardeniers < jgardeniers(a)objectmastery.com&gt; wrote: > Connecting to a VM console with Spice via the RHEV/Ovirt admin interface > works just fine.
