Here are the sections containing the string "spice".

     <channel type='spicevmc'>
       <target type='virtio' name='com.redhat.spice.0'/>
       <address type='virtio-serial' controller='0' bus='0' port='3'/>
     </channel>
...
     <graphics type='spice' autoport='yes' keymap='en-us' 
defaultMode='secure' passwd='*****' passwdValidTo='1970-01-01T00:00:01'>
       <listen type='network' network='vdsm-ovirtmgmt'/>
       <channel name='main' mode='secure'/>
       <channel name='display' mode='secure'/>
       <channel name='inputs' mode='secure'/>
       <channel name='cursor' mode='secure'/>
       <channel name='playback' mode='secure'/>
       <channel name='record' mode='secure'/>
       <channel name='smartcard' mode='secure'/>
       <channel name='usbredir' mode='secure'/>
     </graphics>

Is there anything else I should be looking at?

Kind regards,
