Bug 895559

did you defined TERM as /dev/tty on your local machine?

[bdagan@bdagan ~]$ export TERM=/dev/tty
[bdagan@bdagan ~]$ echo $TERM
/dev/tty
[bdagan@bdagan ~]$ ssh fire-vdc1.qa.lab.tlv.redhat.com -lroot "rhevm-shell -c"
Traceback (most recent call last):

    self._tty = os.open('/dev/tty', os.O_RDWR)
OSError: [Errno 6] No such device or address: '/dev/tty'

Did you try ssh ... -t  ... ?

even if you'll work out your env. issues and will invoke shell remotely, script
output won't be redirected to the linux console i/o stream as rhevm-shell doesn't have cli invocation capabilities.

I see that this feature has a target release of 3.4, however considering this is available in the upstream is there any possibility of getting this into a future point release of RHEL 3.3?

RHEVM 3.3 already after feature freeze, currently we working on stabilizing the version

Verified on :

# rpm -q ovirt-engine
ovirt-engine-3.4.0-0.7.beta2.el6.noarch

# rpm -qa | grep ovirt-engine | egrep 'sdk|cli'
ovirt-engine-cli-3.4.0.3-1.el6.noarch
