[ovirt-users] VM remote noVNC console

[Alex K]

Thank you Alan.
I will try this. I guess if i define localhost as the spice proxy at each
host i will not need to edit the vv file.

Is there a way to change the default 2min expiration to sth greater? Lets
say 5min, as mostly i use high latency satellite connections.
