Previously, the common way to access the system VMs was via SSH from the management server: https://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/projects/archived-cloudstack-getting-started/en/latest/administration_guide.html#accessing-system-vms
It looks like this piece of documentation is missing from the newer releases, so I'm not sure if it's still a viable option in 4.12 and beyond. This may be helpful if VNC console access is not working for you. ________________________________ From: Karol Jędrzejczyk <kjedrzejc...@icotera.com> Sent: 06 May 2020 16:27 To: users@cloudstack.apache.org <users@cloudstack.apache.org> Subject: Re: Secondary Storage wt., 5 maj 2020 o 11:37 Karol Jędrzejczyk <kjedrzejc...@icotera.com> napisał(a): > I have similar observations.

Is there a default username and password to access System VMs or do I have to set system.vm.random.password to true and get it that way? -- Karol Jędrzejczyk -- CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE This message and any attachment is intended exclusively for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
