Hi Melanie, We recommend using novncproxy_base_url with vncserver_proxyclient_address set to the dom0's management IP address. We don't currently use nova-console, so deprecation would be the best approach. Thanks, Bob -----Original Message----- From: melanie witt [mailto:melwittt at gmail.com] Sent: 03 October 2018 23:08 To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) <openstack-dev at lists.openstack.org>; openstack-operators at lists.openstack.org Subject: [openstack-dev] [nova][xenapi] can we deprecate the xenapi-specific 'nova-console' service? Greetings Devs and Ops, Today I noticed that our code does not handle the 'nova-console' service properly in a multi-cell deployment and given that no one has complained or reported bugs about it, we're wondering if anyone still uses the nova-console service. The documentation [1] says that the nova-console service is a "XenAPI-specific service that most recent VNC proxy architectures do not use." Can anyone from xenapi land shed some light on whether the nova-console service is still useful in deployments using the xenapi driver, or is it an old relic that we should deprecate and remove? Thanks for your help, -melanie [1] https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/admin/remote-console-access.html __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: OpenStack-dev-request at lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
