Re: [Xen-API] xl console on XCP

[David Markey <admin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would like some way of accessing text consoles other than VNC.

Some kind of restricted ssh shell?

Xapi runs vncterm-wrapper which then runs vncterm.

We probably should revisit how our consoles are handled... for example there is code lying around to use qemu instead of vncterm which we could consider. We could also make it more officially configurable somehow, to save people hacking vncterm-wrapper (or killing the processes :)

Cheers,
Dave
