Hi all I edited /etc/ovirt-engine/osinfo.conf.d/00-defaults.properties and added the lines: os.rhel_6x64.devices.display.protocols.value = spice/qxl os.rhel_7x64.devices.display.protocols.value = spice/qxl os.rhel_8x64.devices.display.protocols.value = spice/qxl And its working now. Is this OK or is there a better way to handle this?
