*** Bug 1610463 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** What is the reason the customer prefer using VNC and not SPICE? SPICE is a better protocol, it delivers a high quality user experience, keeps CPU consumption low, and supports high quality video streaming. That's The Reason it's the default graphic protocol in Ovirt, Also, we can't implement in foreman any feature that exists in Ovirt, So unless we have a good reason for adding the option to change the graphics protocol in foreman I suggest we should close this bug.

Customers in more secure environments do not have access/permissions to install additional software like virt-viewer on their workstation. This is required in order to connect to a SPICE session since the HTML5 SPICE client has been deprecated. RHV/oVirt provides a noVNC option for VMs that use a VNC console which solves this problem. RHV supports both SPICE and VNC so it would be useful to have that choice when provisioning with Satellite. if we change the default graphic console to SPICE+VNC, would it solve the issue? (In reply to Shira Maximov from comment #6) > if we change the default graphic console to SPICE+VNC, would it solve the > issue? Yes, that would solve the issue. Created redmine issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/24532 from this bug Does the customer want to be able to open the console from ovirt with VNC or from foreman? (In reply to Shira Maximov from comment #9) > Does the customer want to be able to open the console from ovirt with VNC or > from foreman? The customer is only interested in opening the VNC console from oVirt. After looking a bit, the VNC+SPICE allows you to open VNC and then SPICE without restarting the VM (and vice versa). This means that the customer will still need to choose VNC in the console options in order to connect for VNC. Are you sure that this option is good for the customer?

Yes, because it gives the customer the choice of console type they wish to use. Additionally, the console choice will be remembered so the customer will only need to choose once. Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite 6 since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/24532 has been resolved. Verified with Sat 6.7 snap 10. Successfully created RHEV CR with default display type set, both through Hammer and through WebUI. When creating a new host, the default display type is pre-filled. It is not possible to set keyboard layout through Hammer, however, it's not a regression (the functionality is new) and it's out of scope of this BZ. I'll report a separate BZ about it. When trying SPICE console, I hit same-origin policy in Firefox but the same happened in Sat 6.5. VNC console works.
