Sorry for all the noise, but this is resolved and I wanted to share for the record. Although the console options for the VM do not provide any selection here, if you right-click on the VM there is a menu item for "Console Options". This had "Remote Desktop" selected. I was able to change it to SPICE in that menu (but not the VM edit menu, which already stated SPICE). It seems we have some issues in 3.4.1-1: - some dueling menu options (the options in VM edit/Show Advanced Options/Console/Protocol are silently overridden by the options in right-click VM/Console Options) - the overriding menu is pretty well hidden (only available via right-click VM) - the default behavior now requires a change in the 'hidden' menu unless you pre-configured your Windows machine to allow Remote Desktop access (you can't use RDP with Windows by default, yet the default oVirt console protocol after import is RDP) - the console.rdp file generated does not have sufficient information to complete an RDP connection (no valid hostname/address to connect to) Thanks, Bob On 05/22/2014 01:57 PM, Joop wrote:
Look at your console options. Its a windows vm and it seems console defaults to rdp. You'll need a rdp viewer, rdesktop, or switch to spice or vnc
