unless you disabled SSL for hosts/spice via config - ssl is configured
by default.
though i'm not sure this is the issue.

juan - care to jump in here, as this is a common question, maybe even
worth a wiki example in the cli wiki.
The command to use the console is just "console myvm":
ovirt-shell --connect --url http://host.example.com:8080/api --user
admin@internal --password letmein!
[oVirt shell (connected)]# console myserver
That should launch the spice command with the right parameters. Make
sure you have the spice-client package installed.
If it does not work it may be because the latest version of the CLI
requires SSL (that is probably a bug). If this is your case please apply
the following change to the file
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ovirtcli/platform/posix/spice.py:

That will remove the "-s" option when calling spicec, so it should work
without SSL. I will open a bug for this and start to work on a proper
solution.
Let me know if this workaround works for you.
