What about nova-xvpvncproxy [1]? This would be configured using
xvpvncproxy_base_url. This is also Xen-specific (as the name, Xen VNC
Proxy, would suggest). If the noVNC-based console is now recommended,
can we also deprecate the XVP one?

Re: [openstack-dev] [nova][xenapi] can we deprecate the xenapi-specific 'nova-console' service?

2018-10-04 Thread Bob Ball
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

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

[openstack-dev] [nova][xenapi] can we deprecate the xenapi-specific 'nova-console' service?

2018-10-03 Thread melanie witt

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,
