Description
As new vCenter versions already support HTML5 console, it would interesting support it instead VNC.

Use case
This will usage less config, no need config injection in VM config file, better security once a VNC weill not enabled, the VM deployment will be more fast and other advantages.

Interface Changes
I think that will need changes on Sunstone and API

Additional Context
Perl example code https://github.com/lamw/vghetto-scripts/blob/master/perl/generateHTML5VMConsole.pl
Ruby example code https://gist.github.com/bthornto/bfce98039e845fa44e9b

Multiple problems:

  • no way to do a proper ws to wss websocket
  • need to accept a cookie interactively, no easy way to do this programatically
  • connection needs to be done directly to ESX, so no gain with VNC in this aspect

too many effort already spent in this issue, closing it for the time being.

Need to reopen this due to vSphere 7.0 dropping VNC support.

Requirements:

  • Connection from web UI to sunstone server, never straight to vCenter/ESX
  • Embedded in Web UI
  • Need to handle cookies

We can start by connecting sunstone server to ESX if needs be, no need to route through vCenter (which is probing difficult). Still need a web socket proxy in sunstone server for this.
