Hi rami,
Yes, AHV has a VM console for each VM. When you login to Prism, click the main drop-down menu at the top-left and select "VM".
From there, you can change to "Table" view, click the VM you want to look at, then select the "Launch Console" button. The Launch Console button is about halfway down the screen, just above the graphs for CPU usage, etc.
VMs on AHV do not require guest tools to be installed in order for the VM console to function.
Hope that helps!

Hi,
Just remember that the console is not working fine in every browser...
See the remark below, it is from the documentation
Note: A VNC client may not function properly on all browsers. Some keys are not recognized when the browser is Chrome. (Firefox typically works best.)

is there anyway to connect VNC console client to the Prism UI to retrieve VM console access?
