Re: GSoC'17

[Sverrir Berg]

Congratulations with the selection!

We at Greenqloud have been using NoVNC as integral part of Qstack until
recently.  We are now using Apache Guacamole
https://guacamole.incubator.apache.org/.
The main reasons for us to switch were Windows support - native RDP support
is required for the Hyper-V Hypervisor.  Other benefits are that it is
written in Java and released under the Apache License.
If you decide to go with NoVNC note that the idea of generating signed
certificates for wss support will not work since no browser accepts self
signed certificates for WebSocket connections (we were using the Python
bridge).
If you would like further information please send me an email.

Good luck with your project,
Sverrir

GSoC'17

[sachin patil]

Hello all,

   I have been selected for GSoC'17 and would be working on
CloudStack-9778 (
 Adding a new NoVNC console ).

The aim of this feature is to make it possible to connect to VM consoles
using  VNC client called NoVNC in browsers.

NoVNC console is better than our current customized console. Additional
features that NoVNC provides over the current customized console include a
copy/paste functionality, scrollback. NoVNC uses websockets that provides a
more reliable and secure connections.

My proposal can be found here
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IqJiZ_sJZktAoPjdQePoinBNZzPboR1jCkUXBpqanjo/edit

I have been selected for this project with my mentors Rohit Yadav and Syed
Ahmed.

Would like to know about your thoughts/ideas on this project.

Regards,
Sachin Patil

Re: unable to download volume on cloudstack 4.6

[Syed Ahmed]

Marc,

Does changing the path from .ova to .vmdk help at all? Also, is it a data
volume or a ROOT volume?

Thanks,
