OSX – VNC

289 views 0 March 31, 2018 zipadmin

  • In my experience, I found that novnc seems to be the easiest to install for remote access to VMs on OSX.
  • You can change the default for oVirt to set for all NEW VMs
    • ssh into your oVirt Engine
      • engine-config -g ClientModeVncDefault

        should return something like “ClientModeVncDefault: Native version: general”

      • engine-config -s ClientModeVncDefault=NoVnc
        engine-config -g ClientModeVncDefault

        should now return “ClientModeVncDefault: NoVnc version: general”

    • now you should be able to access your VMs in the browser when clicking “CONSOLE” on the VM
  • You can also edit existing VMs
    • set the VMs CONSOLE to be VNC
    • Click the CONSOLE ▾
      • Console Options – NOVNC

    I am working on writing some docs on how to modify CE Phoenix.

    Let me know if you have any requests.


    Also keep in mind these docs are currently being written,
    so try not to be too critical over omissions.
