USB passthrough using the spice client works even on remote connection. Not
tried a serial port.

If the virtual machines are run on, say, a laptop or desktop, then ovirt is
truly overkill. Use the virt-manager instead. Ovirt is designed as an open
source replacement for VMWare's VSphere manager. It will certainly work as
a local tool but it's a jboss application and pretty heavy.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you gain
at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his own tail.
It won't fatten the dog.
