Dear Gian/Michal,

Thank you for your technical information.

I will try VNC option. If you have any another solution, please let me know.

Dear Team,

Anyone can support me, how to configure Multiple Consoles for single VM in ovirt.

“Currently I can access only one spice console”

I read the document from as I mentioned in the below link

https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/virt/multiple-consoles/

If I correctly understood your question, in edit VM you have a drop down menu like in this image:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Wk1d_4-Ye0C7s0xxYAKIG5-rIJ2M2puH/view?usp=sharing

where you can choose SPICE, VNC or SPICE+VNC

If you mean more than one user to concurrently connect to spice console of the same VM from different clients, in the same edit window you have to select "Advanced Parameters" and then select "Disable strict user checking" like this:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VfBzukJAk7-h_1W9w8oEFgvc8_KN2Rn2/view?usp=sharing

That’s not for concurrent console from 2 different clients, second connection disconnects the active one. That’s not supported in SPICE and neither in VNC by default. For VNC a vdsm hook can do the trick or use the brwser-based novnc client which lacks the disconnect functionality so it allows you to open 2 sessions

I didn’t try it recently, but should/may work

HIH,

Gianluca
