Hi, The configuration shown at 2016-07-04 of video set to "cirrus-vga" and graphic console set to "spice" is an invalid combination which is not supported by oVirt. I'm not sure how it get there ("vnc" changed to "spice" without changing the video device type to "qxl") but it may cause the problem afterwards of removing both graphic and video devices ...

It seems that the main issue here is that the graphics device is missing from the engine db. This causes the generated ovf to not contain a graphics device which in turn makes the vm.conf not have it, and so the console is not available.
So what we need to understand now is what caused the graphics device to disappear and a way to return it.
Did anything out of the regular update flow happened with the vm?
Thanks, Jenny
It seems not. Based on log files that I see, the environment was initially installed with 3.6.0 and the engine installed from the ova contained into ovirt-engine-appliance-20151104.0-1.el7.centos.ova Then I updated the engine with the usual procedure to 3.6.1, 3.6.2, 3.6.3, 3.6.5, 4.0.0.6-1, 4.0.2.6-1, 4.0.2.7-1, 4.0.4.4-1, 4.0.5.5-1 , -4.0.6.3-1, 4.1.0.4-1, 4.1.1.8-1
Watching qemu logs on host for the HosteEngine VM I see this:
On 19/11/15 the console seemed to be vnc, based on HostedEngine.log-20170421

I don't know how and when I set it to spice, but I think I didn't do anything...
