[Users] Understanding Console Options

2013-09-28 Thread Nicholas Kesick
I'm trying to understand the various console options for a wiki page. Can 
someone make sure what I have in the attachments are right? 
 
Also when a VM is set to Spice and I open Console Options (at least in IE 10 
for me, need to test further), it opens to Remote Desktop. Are these active 
yet? I don't see RDP as an option under Edit > Console.
 
Finally, is there any way to get the VNC option that we had in oVirt 3.2 that 
would pop up with a port number and password to use with a local client?

Hello Nick,

concerning the 3rd screenshot - that was a bug in oVirt, but the fix has been 
already merged. 

About the VNC popup - indeed, it has been removed. The only way to get the VNC 
connection information is using 'Native' mode in Console options dialog and 
then open incoming .vv file (e.g. using text editor, script...). I suppose the 
virt-viewer association with .vv file must be turned off (otherwise virt-viewer 
will pop up instantly).

Regards,
Frank.

you could associate you vnc client of choise with it as well of course.

frantisek - do we use different mime types for spice/vnc/rdp to allow 
setting up a different client for vnc/spice/rdp?

The replacement of VNC popup with a .vv file download seems like a (or several) 
step backward. Since virt-viewer appears to be a linux-only tool, and VNC 
clients from Windows or OS X do not recognize the file formats, opening a 
console to a VM just became more cumbersome for not apparent benefit. There 
should at least be an option for those that don't use virt-viewer to still get 
the popup.

Maybe this is just a ploy to get everyone to use Spice?

to answer both.
1. its not a ploy, its actually to solve the problem for platforms 
without plugins for spice or vnc (no platform has a plugin for vnc).


2. virt-viewer supports both windows and linux
http://www.spice-space.org/download.html

i remember there is a client for mac as well actually, i suggest asking on:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel

3. you can write a small wrapper script and associate it with the .vv 
file (hopefully, someone will do this and attach an example for others).

this will work for both vnc of your choice and spice on any platform

Re: [Users] Understanding Console Options

2013-10-04 Thread Haoyang Haven Liu
I can appreciate the .vv file for certain platforms in which virt-viewer 
provides additional benefits, but my point was I (and I suspect at least some 
other) use existing VNC clients in Mac/Windows/Linux, and perhaps don't want to 
use virt-viewer. In those cases, that the  "download .vv file method" is more 
needlessly cumbersome as compared to the "popup with host/port/password" 
method, whether it involves writing a wrapper, or just open the downloaded text 
file.

As I said, perhaps instead of the two console options scheme currently, it 
should be a three console option scheme with "VNC", "virt-viewer", "SPICE", 
because the "download .vv file method" is not at all (generic) VNC clients 
friendly.

it is missing a script for you to associate with your browser, which

or, if you prefer, associate it with your favorite text editor so you can 
copy&paste the same info as before.
It's a browser's association you have to set/change
