Thanks for the info Dan. If that's what it takes I'll need to use a different method. The one you describe is not only very messy but extremely breakable and error prone (e.g. if the VM migrates to another host).

The steps are:
1. Find the VM's UUID in the API
https://rhevm/ovirt-engine/api/vms?search=VMNAME
2. Find the VM's current host and spice ports:
https://rhevm/ovirt-engine/api/vms/UUID/
Look for the <display> section - it will hold the host IP or FQDN, and the spice ports
3. Issue a spice ticket via https://rhevm/ovirt-engine/api/vms/UUID/ticket
4. Connect with a spice client (remote-viewer or spicec) with the target being HOST:PORT and the ticket you issued as password

All this can be scripted via the API or the engine CLI

Hope this helps

Dan

    Connecting to a VM console with Spice via the RHEV/Ovirt admin
    interface works just fine. How can I connect to a VM's console
    using a free-standing Spice viewer, such as the Chrome Spice
    Viewer plug-in? I've so far found no information on this at all.

    regards,
