Hi Gilboa,

The spice protocol has been deprecated by Red Hat for over 3 years. It may 
still be available in CentOS or RHEL versions but not in OL.
It cannot be enabled.

Subject: [External] : [ovirt-users] Importing VMs from CentOS 8 Streams to 
Oracle 8.9 oVirt (QXL issues)

Hello all,

I'm evaluating switching our existing oVirt clusters to Oracle Linux 8 oVirt 
4.5.
It seems that Oracle has completely disabled QXL/Spice (leaving only VGA and 
Cirrus) on their oVirt fork (1).
I'm trying to import a VM from an existing oVirt data storage into an Oracle 
cluster, but I'm getting
'VAR__ACTION__IMPORT,VAR__TYPE__VM,ACTION_TYPE_FAILED_ILLEGAL_VM_DISPLAY_TYPE_IS_NOT_SUPPORTED_BY_OS'
 error.
Comparing the spice-related packages in Oracle and CentOS based oVirt 
installation, I see no changes.

Two questions:
1. Can I somehow enable QXL support in Oracle oVirt?
2. Assuming I can't, can I somehow editing the VM configuration without 
mounting in a temporary CentOS based cluster, editing the configuration and 
reimporting it into Oracle?

Thanks,
Gilboa
