I just finished setup oVirt on FC16 (same host run vdsmd)
I can start VM but cannot connect console using VNC. No information for connecting VNC available. Although I can figure out which port VNC running, I don't know password and it cannot be set or view from webadmin or userportal console.
VDSM has a SetVmTicket API that you can use to set a VNC password. If your host has the vdsClient program installed, try:
vdsClient 0.0.0.0 setVmTicket <vm UUID> abc123 60
This will set the password to 'abc123' for 60 seconds. That being said, I think the oVirt supported display mode is spice. You may have an easier time connecting via spice.
The user portal and webadmin don't support VNC currently. You can use the REST API of ovirt engine to set the ticket (vnc password) and connect.
