Hyper V console access

Question

Tuesday, May 23, 2017 9:47 AM

Hello,

We have a servers on which Hyper V is installed and using which many Virtual Machine's are created. The server operates on 2008 and 2012 OS. I would like to provide the console access to my client Virtual Machine's hosted on that servers. 

Anyone know any option in order to achieve this? Is there any plugin/API/code which can help me in order to integrate it on my existing Hyper V and then our client hosted will have console access to there respective Virtual Machine's?

Thank you in advanced.

Hello Russpet,

You can use VMConnect to connect to a virtual machine. 

For more details about introduction for VMConnect, please refer to the following article.

/en-us/windows-server/virtualization/hyper-v/learn-more/hyper-v-virtual-machine-connect

For Client VM with Windows desktop, such as windows 10, 8, 7, you can install VMConnect from the control panel -> Turn Windows feature on or off, and install the feature "Hyper-V GUI Management Tools".

For Client VM with Windows Server, such as Windows 2012, you can install VMConnect from the Server manager, and install the feature "Hyper-V GUI Management Tools".

Best regards,
Andy Liu
