The console manager triggers the console creation here: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/66c661258873e2544e286099c4bc027c26c851c4/nova/console/manager.py#L79 The XVPConsoleProxy implements it here: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/46b3a3ca1ac3a5ffdc7c5420263223f2d3b9a660/nova/console/xvp.py#L56-L58 Looks like that service runs with default Devstack settings as service "nova-xvpvncproxy": https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack/blob/f3b2f4c85307b14f115a020f5eaf6c92026b55b4/lib/nova#L892-L892 The API microversion 2.6 introduced a consolidation of the remote consoles: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/3e032fd45be28c6098235ce336e675d03ebc6619/nova/api/openstack/compute/schemas/remote_consoles.py#L101-L102 Could it be that the "GET /console" API shouldn't be available anymore since microversion 2.6? api-ref about the consoles: https://developer.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/?expanded=get-vnc-console-os-getvncconsole-action-deprecated-detail,create-remote-console-detail -- Regards, Markus Zoeller (markus_z)
