oVirt 4.0.5 and SHE console from gui
Hello, In a clean environment configured in 4.0.5 I used VNC for hosted engine VM console during setup. In web admin gui I see that the graphics protocol for the Hosted Engine VM is indeed VNC and Video Type VGA. I have verified that if I configure a VM with VNC graphics (video type both cirrus and vga tried) I'm able to connect to it with remote-viewer from Linux client and with virt-viewer in a W2012 client. A part from the usual command hosted-engine --add-console-password and related vmcviewer one from console, can I connect to the VNC engine console also from web admin gui? Both from Windows and Linux I get error Unable to connect to the graphic server C:\Users\Admini~1\Appdata\Local\Temp\console-12.vv Unable to connect to the graphic server /tmp/mozilla_g.cecchi0/console.vv Can I setup console to spice after install? And in case can I connect to its console from webadmin gui then? Thanks, Gianluca

Can you please check/share the .vv files?

Not sure if this is covered by [1]. Adding Roy. If it's not, you can try manually editing it, check e.g. [2], and feel free to open an RFE.

Yes, I have to check on which host the VM is and then on that host hosted-engine --add-console-password and then from my client vncviewer 192.168.150.102:5900 I'm proposed a password and after input I can open the ovirt engine console.

Sorry, it was actually a problem with name resolution of the particular host where the engine was running when I tried the first time. Now it is ok also from web admin gui. I'm going to check anyway the actions to change the console to spice protocol. Thanks, Gianluca
