I am unsure about concurrent access, this should be done using ssh bridge and now low level solution.

Thanks, Alon

How will it behave when: - VM is being snapshotted? - VM is being migrated? - VM is suspended? - VM is being (cold)rebooted? At least for last two I suppose the serial console session will be interrupted. VMWare uses extended communication to inform virtual serial port concentrator about various action of a VM, thus "proxy" doesn't drop serial connections. http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk41pubs/vsp41_usingproxy_... j.
