[ovirt-users] Setup, run and access a VNC session built from script

[Nicolas Ecarnot]

Hi,

Some months ago, I think I read something like that here, but I can not 
find it...

We have several oVirt setups, and we can not change that.
We have several VMs on each of them, and sometimes, we have to access 
their oVirt VNC console, but it is painful to know on which oVirt they 
are running. At present, I either have to remember on which one it lies, 
or to web-connect on every oVirt web GUI and crawl.

I thought I would be possible to have a DNS cname made like this :
c-myServerName, pointing to something leading to the VNC oVirt console 
of the myServerName VM.

That ( <- ? ) would lead to asking oVirt to create a VNC session for the 
correct VM, create the passwd, then run a noVNC session with the correct 
credentials.

I'm used to play with simple oVirt shell commands, but I guess that many 
things will happen in a HTML and WWW context, so I've started to play 
with REST.

Does anybody knows if someone took the time to do similar things, or if 
someone remembers having seen such a workflow?

Regards
