Open Stack

Hi,
The VC returns consoled output in a PNG format. In order for OpenStack to display this it will need to be converted to a text format (which may be a very non trivial task).
To be honest I am not really sure how the console output for other drivers works when the running VM is say for example a windows VM. I am not sure what is displayed (I have yet to check this out).
Thanks
Gary

Thank you for your quick response.

The console output is not supported in Grizzly and Havana with ESX driver but if I want to do my own changes to support it, how I can go ahead?

Regards,
Rajshree

Hi,
Yes, Yaguang you are correct. The console output is not supported. In Havana we added a log message to indicate that it is not support. There are changes proposed in Icehosue to say that this is not supported.
Thanks
Gary
