well, I have to admit that it has been a while since I tried logging in to a vm console from a Windows OS :)
Adding some people to this which I think can help more than me...

        * IE will prompt you with "This website wants to install the following add-on 
SpiceX.cab... proceed by clicking the arrow on the install button and choose "Install for 
All Users of this computer".
        * Depending on the version of IE a UAC dialog may pop up asking you if you want 
to allow "SpiceX.cab" If it does not Click on the install spice button again 
and it will.
        * In the UAC dialog click on the yes button.
        * The install will now proceed in the background.


I am using W7 64bit with IE11. My engine is running on a RHEL6 machine.

  Maybe someone with more knowledge should come out and make clarifications.

  yuck

  i dont know why they do not just have this already done in an rpm

  yes it probably works , i have not tested it ,  but virt-viewer is
  deprecated in favor of the newer Remote-Viewer

  by the way

  worst comes to worst  you can always connect to the ovirt vm node
  server via virt-manager gui in linux .. or using macports virt-manager
  in OSX

  and as long as you have a username and password set up in libvirt
  password db
  /etc/libvirt/passwd.db

  use saslpasswd2 -a libvirt $USER  on your ovirt vm host node
  to add your user account so you dont mess with ovirt's

  if you have  winaxe or some other Xwindows on your windows machine you
  could probably just ssh with putty.exe to your ovirt node server and
run
  virt-manager from there while displaying back to your windows desktop

  Is this page still applicable to ovirt 3.3.2?

    install them wherever your firefox browser is installed...
    whichever machine you are using to browse to the portal from

    unfortunately i believe ovirts' spice viewing only works on
linux
    desktops running firefox  currently

    also the ovirt  vnc implementation assumes you have
remote-viewer  which
    can open that .vv file that pops up.. again remote-viewer would
only be
    available on linux desktops..

    there IS a MAC OS port for remote-viewer , but i've never
gotten it to
    work without a lot of manual URL input

    Do I need these to be installed on the engine or on the machine
where the
    webadmin portal browser is being run?

    Are there any ovirt links describing these?

     you ve probabaly not install teh spice xpi in your firefox
on linux
  when
     you opened the console , or maybe the remote-viewer
application is
     missing

     use yum to install these

     Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 10:08:13 -0800 (PST)

     Hi,

     My first time to install a VM on ovirt has encountered a
problem. I
  tried
    to
     open up a console to continue the install process. But all I
got is a
  blank
     window and a request to save a file which I did. The window
remained
  blank
    and I
     couldn't see any activities. I went to the node itself
and tried
  to see
    if I
     could use virsh tool to understand what's going on. But
I was
  asked for
    a
     username and password to perform any actions.

     Any idea what I should do at this time?

     David
