The node is up and running. I can ssh in no problem. VM is started and running ok with 0% CPU 3% memory.
I don't know how to connect VNC to it, my VNC console option is grayed out.
stop the VM. edit it, change console from spice to vnc, start VM, connect to it again with vnc.
I also tried " browser plugin" option by installing spice-xpi on my RHEL6 (which runs the firefox browser). Now when the console is launched, a popup window shows up but then an error " Unable to connect to the graphic server".

This time I tried to use "spice html5 browser client". I downloaded the cert from http://<my-engine>/ovirt-engine/ca.crt. This time

So what else am I missing here?
just to rule out things: - is the geust working correctly for you (ssh?) - does it happen to consume 100% cpu? - does vnc work for you correctly for this guest?

* IE will prompt you with "This website wants to
install the following add-on SpiceX.cab... proceed by clicking the arrow on the install button and choose "Install for All Users of this computer".
* Depending on the version of IE a UAC dialog may pop up
asking you if you want to allow "SpiceX.cab" If it does not Click on the install spice button again and it will.
* In the UAC dialog click on the yes button. * The install will now proceed in the background.
I am using W7 64bit with IE11. My engine is running on a
RHEL6 machine.
IE11 doesn't really work as of now. Try some more reasonable browser, IE10 would be also fine.
activex setup requires some manual work as mentione at How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_With_Portal wiki native invocation (that file to download you got) is easier, just associate with recent remote viewer and it should open it works on Windows, Linux and OSX (needs https://github.com/brianwcook/launchvv in addition)
