Can I directly connect to managed hosts, bypassing the web UI?

All communication between the oVirt web UI and the managed hosts takes place using libvirt APIs. So any libvirt enabled application can also connect to the managed hosts. For example the virsh command can be used to manage VMs, though it is recommended that all management by done via the web UI unless major problems have occurred requiring manual recovery.
