I don't know how to connect VNC to it, my VNC console option is grayed out.

stop the VM. edit it, change console from spice to vnc, start VM, connect to it again with vnc.


I also tried " browser plugin" option by installing spice-xpi on my RHEL6 (which runs the 
firefox browser). Now when the console is launched, a popup window shows up but then an error 
" Unable to connect to the graphic server".

  So what else am I missing here?

just to rule out things:
- is the geust working correctly for you (ssh?)
- does it happen to consume 100% cpu?
- does vnc work for you correctly for this guest?

    I am using W7 64bit with IE11. My engine is running on a
RHEL6 machine.

  IE11 doesn't really work as of now.
  Try some more reasonable browser, IE10 would be also fine.

  activex setup requires some manual work as mentione at
  How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_With_Portal wiki
  native invocation (that file to download you got) is easier, just
associate with
  recent remote viewer and it should open
  it works on Windows, Linux and OSX (needs

  in addition)

     yuck

     i dont know why they do not just have this
already done in
  an rpm

     yes it probably works , i have not tested it ,
but
  virt-viewer is
     deprecated in favor of the newer Remote-Viewer

     by the way

     worst comes to worst  you can always connect to
the ovirt
  vm node
     server via virt-manager gui in linux .. or using
macports
  virt-manager
     in OSX

     and as long as you have a username and password
set up in
  libvirt
     password db
     /etc/libvirt/passwd.db

     use saslpasswd2 -a libvirt $USER  on your ovirt
vm host
  node
     to add your user account so you dont mess with
ovirt's

     if you have  winaxe or some other Xwindows on
your windows
  machine you
     could probably just ssh with putty.exe to your
ovirt node
  server and
    run
     virt-manager from there while displaying back to
your
  windows desktop

     Is this page still applicable to ovirt 3.3.2?

       install them wherever your firefox browser
is
  installed...
       whichever machine you are using to browse
to the
  portal from

       unfortunately i believe ovirts' spice
viewing
  only works on
    linux
       desktops running firefox  currently

       also the ovirt  vnc implementation assumes
you have
    remote-viewer  which
       can open that .vv file that pops up..
again
  remote-viewer would
    only be
       available on linux desktops..

       there IS a MAC OS port for remote-viewer ,
but
  i've never
    gotten it to
       work without a lot of manual URL input

       Do I need these to be installed on the
engine or on
  the machine
    where the
       webadmin portal browser is being run?

       Are there any ovirt links describing
these?

        you ve probabaly not install teh
spice xpi in
  your firefox
    on linux
     when
        you opened the console , or maybe the
  remote-viewer
    application is
        missing

        use yum to install these

        Hi,

        My first time to install a VM on
ovirt has
  encountered a
    problem. I
     tried
       to
        open up a console to continue the
install
  process. But all I
    got is a
     blank
        window and a request to save a file
which I
  did. The window
    remained
     blank
       and I
        couldn't see any activities. I
went to the
  node itself
    and tried
     to see
       if I
        could use virsh tool to understand
what's
  going on. But
    I was
     asked for
       a
        username and password to perform any
actions.

        Any idea what I should do at this
time?

        David
