MKS
---
MKS is the protocol used for accessing the console of a virtual machine running
on VMware vSphere. It is very similar to VNC. Due to the architecture of the
VMware vSphere hypervisor, it is not necessary to run a console proxy service.
Configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To enable the MKS console service, only the :program:`nova-compute` service
must be configured. All options are defined in the :oslo.config:group:`mks`
group.
The :program:`nova-compute` service requires the following options to configure
MKS console support.
- :oslo.config:option:`mks.enabled`
- :oslo.config:option:`mks.mksproxy_base_url`
For example, to configure this via a ``nova.conf`` file:
.. code-block:: console
[mks]
enabled = True
mksproxy_base_url = https://127.0.0.1:6090/
