This is an FFE request for adding console support for Hyper-V. Unlike most other hypervisors, Hyper-V guest console access is based on RDP instead of VNC. This blueprint adds RDP support in Nova, implemented in a way consistent with the existing VNC and SPICE
protocols. </div>

It's an essential feature for Hyper-V, requiring a relatively small implementation in the Hyper-V driver and a Nova public API .</div>

This blueprint, implemented during the H3 timeframe has been temporarily blocked with a -2 between Aug 12th and Aug 27th due to the dependency on the admin-api blueprint which has subsequently been cancelled (<a href="https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/admin-api">https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/admin-api</a>). </div>
<div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">
This led to not being able to commit the final implementation until very late in the H3 cycle, thus the FFE request now. </div>

The commits related to this blueprint remained basically unreviewed since then, but I definitely cannot complain.</div>

The Nova team has been amazingly helpful in getting most of the Havana Hyper-V blueprints merged in time for H3 against all odds, which definitely deserves a big THANK YOU from the Hyper-V sub-project team! :-)</div>

Due to its importance for Hyper-V support in OpenStack, it'd be great if we could be able to give a chance to this Havana blueprint to be reviewed as well, if possible.</div>
