Adding Marain here who is responsible for QXL testing.

bcao--->Marain
I am not sure the words "The QXL driver is required to use SPICE" Does RHEVM support -vnc :0 -vga qxl ?

Thanks,
Mike

The para-virtualized controller device (virtio-scsi)
    The para-virtualized SCSI controller device provides a more flexible and scalable alternative to virtio-blk. A virtio-scsi guest is capable of inheriting the feature set of the target device, and can handle hundreds of devices compared to virtio-blk, which can only handle 28 devices.
    virtio-scsi is fully supported for the following guest operating systems:

        Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
        Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4 and above
        Windows Server 2008
        Windows 7
        Windows Server 2012
        Windows 8 (32/64 bit)

What do you mean? RHEVM does not support VNC and SPICE at the same time for a single VM but this is work under progress and will be supported. QXL driver is not really required for SPICE but without it It does not make much sense, so for the simplicity It can be said "required".
