Description Simone Tiraboschi 2016-11-24 22:13:45 UTC 
Description of problem:
hosted-engine --console always assumes that the graphical console of the engine VM is on port 5900 but this is true just if the engine was the first started virtual machine and it hasn't never been restarted or migrated.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.6.9 and previous,
4.0 is already OK since https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1333449 because now 'hosted-engine --console' wrappes uses a serial console.

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. deploy hosted-engine
2. start other VMs
3. restart the engine VM

Actual results:
'hosted-engine --console' works only if the console is on port 5900

Expected results:
'hosted-engine --console' always works

Additional info:
4.0 is not affected since https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1333449 because now 'hosted-engine --console' wrappes uses a serial console.

simple workaround: check the correct port and manually start remote-viewer connecting to the right port

We will not be backporting this and this is fixed in latest 4.0. Therefore closing.

Comment 7 Nikolai Sednev 2017-03-30 14:17:12 UTC 
Somehow fons being chosen incorrectly and ugly console being opened, check for the screencast as attached. 
ssh -Y  root@alma04

[root@alma04 ~]# hosted-engine --console
Use the password you've set using --add-console-password for logging in

Comment 8 Nikolai Sednev 2017-03-30 14:49:00 UTC 
xorg-x11-xauth-1.0.9-1.el7.x86_64 package is missing by default on host and not part of the ovirt-hosted-engine-setup package dependency.
Simone had to manually install xorg-x11-xauth-1.0.9-1.el7.x86_64 on host and then also to add normal fonts. After manually installing "yum install xorg-x11-fonts-misc xorg-x11-fonts-Type1 xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi", I've got normal English fonts and was able to log in this way:

1)Cast this from my laptop "ssh -Y  root@alma04" to log in to host.
2)Ran this on host: "hosted-engine --add-console-password".
3)Have set the password.
Enter password: 
        code = 0
        message = 'Done'
4)hosted-engine --console
5)Console graphical interface opened and asked me to authenticate.
6)I've provided authentication password and logged in successfully.

Moving to verified as it works for me now on these components on host:
