Hello Amy.

We had the same needs back in July as we have some classrooms with =

and although we don't just offer the oVirt service we =

works quite fine for what we need. Manage virtual machine's power and =
start a viewer. Period. No more funcionalities (not sure if you need =
something more sophisticated...).

The project has been stopped for a time but it seems that the =

implementing new capabilities and fixing some things =
lately.
Hey all,
I wonder=E2=80=A6coincidentally we started to explore simplified and =
modern interface for use cases like yours.
It=E2=80=99s by no means ready yet, but I wonder what you guys think =
about [1].
It=E2=80=99s just a proof of concept but the goals are the same, it=E2=80=99=
s browser-based but much more lightweight than the current GWT Basic =
User Portal
Thanks,
michal

As a side note, you didn't mention if your thin clients are linux or =
windows
based but I believe this is for linux only.

Hey there,
=20
I'm looking for some kind of desktop client for ovirt. I believe as =
per what
I've seen that there's nothing official so I'm looking for any =
other options (even if it's an own development). As a last resource we =
can use the web admin but the purpose is to have a few thin clients =
which would start the client at boot time so it's more confortable for =
users, plus most times the web admin becomes slow after a while.
=20
I'm not sure if something like this exists. In any case thanks for any =
tip.

By the way, we're using ovirt 3.6.7, fwiw.
