Doc Text:
Previously, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization provided three ways to access a virtual machine graphical console from web portals: using an ActiveX/Firefox SPICE plugin, .vv file MIME type association to remote-viewer (called Native in the user interface), and web-based clients (technology preview). In this version of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, the browser-specific plugins have been deprecated in favor of more universal generic .vv file association, which allows for more flexibility (for example, using custom VNC viewers to view the console) and does not suffer from frequent browser changes and instabilities. As a result, the default SPICE console mode has changed in new installations, which now default to the Native setting in the user interface. For existing installations that are upgraded this value is not changed, but can be configured by the global ClientModeSpiceDefault parameter with the engine-config tool.

Description Michal Skrivanek 2014-04-02 07:56:55 EDT 
For 3.4 cluster level change console default to mime launch (don't change existing installations)
Comment 1 Andrew Cathrow 2014-04-22 13:01:20 EDT 
What's the status of foreign menu support?
Comment 2 Michal Skrivanek 2014-04-25 10:49:34 EDT 
There is some progress on SPICE side, but not there yet.
we're talking about the Exit reason and "Change CD" foreign menu…

it may be still premature to switch

OTOH I'm not aware of complaints once people seem to adopt EL 6.5. Maybe they don't miss it much (the current change cd has few bugs limiting it's usability anyway)
Comment 6 Tomas Jelinek 2015-05-07 01:41:39 EDT 
Fixed, the current behavior is like this: 
- for existing installations (update) this value is not touched at all
- for new installations the Native is set to default
