i thought the intention is to report more than a single user going forward?

FailedQA in ovirt-engine-3.5.0-0.0.master.20140605145557.git3ddd2de.el6.noarch (alpha2).

Verification steps:
1. Have a VM with  guest agent installed (I used Fedora 19).
2. Open VM console and log into the system.
3. In browser/REST API client get resource /ovirt-engine/api/vms/<vm-uuid>/sessions

Result: 
HTTP 404:
-~-
HTTP Status 404 -

type Status report

message

description The requested resource () is not available.
JBoss Web/7.0.13.Final
-~-
Plus a traceback in server.log (attaching in next comment).

Expected result:
XML response with VM sessions collection.

Notes:
Webadmin shows the logged-in user correctly.

Created attachment 908588 [details]
FailedQA - server.log with a traceback

Currently this fails because we are trying to find the user using something like "admin@internal" as the key to lookup the users table, but the "username" column of this table only contains "admin" now. The "internal" part is in the column "domain".

Also, when creating the XML representation we are putting the login name of the user in the "name" element, but it should instead go in "user_name".

should be modified only once 29515 gets merged:-)

Branching will be done again tomorrow, so moving to MODIFIED

Verified in rhevm-3.5.0-0.23.beta.el6ev.noarch (vt13.1).

Verification steps:
1. Have a running VM with guest agent installed.
2. Log into RHEVM as domain user user1@domain.example.com
3. Open the VM console and log into guest as user john@vm-1.rhevm.example.com

The API response for /ovirt-engine/api/vms/<vm-id>/sessions/ is following:
-~-
<sessions>
  <session href="..." id="...">
    <vm href="..." id="..."/>
    <ip address="..."/>
    <user href="..." id="...">
      <domain href="..." id="...">
        <name>domain.example.com</name>
      </domain>
      <user_name>user1</user_name>
    </user>
  <console_user>true</console_user>
  </session>
  <session href="..." id="...">
    <vm href="..." id="..."/>
    <user>
      <user_name>john@vm-1.rhevm.example.com</user_name>
    </user>
  </session>
</sessions>
-~-

There are two sessions:
- first session (with attr. <console_user>true</console_user>) is present only if the VM console is opened by RHEVM user
- second session contains name of the user, which is currently logged into the guest; if no guest user is logged in, the user_name value is None
