Hello, In a clean environment configured in 4.0.5 I used VNC for hosted engine VM console during setup. In web admin gui I see that the graphics protocol for the Hosted Engine VM is indeed VNC and Video Type VGA.
I have verified that if I configure a VM with VNC graphics (video type both cirrus and vga tried) I'm able to connect to it with remote-viewer from Linux client and with virt-viewer in a W2012 client. A part from the usual command hosted-engine --add-console-password and related vmcviewer one from console,
Does this work?
can I connect to the VNC engine console also from web admin gui? Both from Windows and Linux I get error
Unable to connect to the graphic server C:\Users\Admini~1\Appdata\Local\Temp\console-12.vv
Unable to connect to the graphic server /tmp/mozilla_g.cecchi0/console.vv
Can you please check/share the .vv files?
Can I setup console to spice after install? And in case can I connect to its console from webadmin gui then?
Not sure if this is covered by [1]. Adding Roy. If it's not, you can try manually editing it, check e.g. [2], and feel free to open an RFE.
