I dont believe the ipmi specification standardizes vga consoles. Only serial consoles. So it may be possible to get it to work for specific models, but not generically.

Thanks,
Kevin

Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [Ironic] There is a function to display the VGA emulation screen of BMC in the baremetal node on the Horizon?

Thanks Lucas,

However, I'd like to know whether or not capable to get the *VGA
emulation* screen of BMC, rather than serial console.

I also know that the features that can be only in VGA console is
very few, now.  And I am able to get `ironic node-get-console
<node-uuid>`.
Still, I'd like to know such a thing and whether it can be
displayed on the Horizon.

Best regards,
