Pascal, Have you tried viewing the console of that VM(s) with any third party VNC client?
- When connected to the console from cloudstack, can you check whether the connection is established on the VNC port of that VM. @Console Proxy VM => netstat –tunap | grep <VNC port> (or) @Host => esxcli network ip connection list | grep <VNC port> - See the tcpdump trace on Console Proxy VM to confirm that packets are sent and received on VNC port. @Console Proxy VM => tcpdump -n "host <Host-IP> and port <VNC port>" (or) @Host => tcpdump-uw -n "host <Host-IP> and <VNC port>" -Suresh On 04/07/16, 11:57 AM, "Pascal R." <[email protected]> wrote: >Hi, > >i checked the listening ports on the esxi and i can confirm, that there are >4 VNC ports listening.
