Ok, So is there a command I can initiate to re-evaluate the bandwidth
availability or a way to check to see the results are correct? I've got a
gigabit connection and I want it to use as much as possible to provide the
maximum user experience for my VDI users. Like I said, RDP uses 15Mbps which is
fine and gives a great experience but my vdi solution requires spice protocol
and to be used with virt viewer.
Thanks for your help.

There is no such setting. Spice automatically uses all the available
bandwidth.
That said if for some reason it settled on a bandwidth lower than what
is truly available, it will only try to increase bandwidth usage again
after a while and only quite progressively (at least for the GStreamer
backend, I don't really remember what the mjpeg one does in that case).
