Hmm. Don't think Xen uses libvirt. BTW, do you have a blueprint that I can reference? Don't see on your Launchpad page.

We have tested this functionality only with KVM, but if libvirt provides it the same way for other hypervisors, it should be Ok.

Instructions on how to make it work are below. 1. Get Nova mkdir ~/src bzr branch lp:nova 1. Get noVNC cd ~/src git clone https://github.com/openstack/noVNC.git<http://github.com/openstack/noVNC.git> 1. Get and install my branch of dashboard cd ~/src bzr branch lp:openstack-dashboard cd openstack-dashboard/openstack-dashboard python tools/install_venv.py cp local/local_settings.py.example local/local_settings.py 1. Install and run Nova cd ~/src/nova sudo contrib/nova.sh install . sudo contrib/nova.sh run . 1. Run vncproxy Create new screen window with <ctrl>-a <ctrl>-c bin/nova-vncproxy --vncproxy_wwwroot ~/src/noVNC 1. Run dashboard Create new screen window with <ctrl>-a <ctrl>-c Prepare dashboard's db (once): cd ~/src/openstack-dashboard/openstack-dashboard tools/with_venv.sh dashboard/manage.py syncdb When asked to create superuser, type "yes" and create user with name admin and any email and password. cd ~/src/openstack-dashboard/openstack-dashboard tools/with_venv.sh dashboard/manage.py runserver 8080 Now you can navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8080<http://127.0.0.1:8080/>, login with user admin and specified password and have fun.

E.g. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/web-based-serial-console offers the ability to interact with VMs whose network is dead. I'm looking for something similar, but with a graphical console rather than a text-based version. Any information would be most appreciated, DL _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack<https://launchpad.net/%7Eopenstack> Post to : [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack<https://launchpad.net/%7Eopenstack> More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
