通过console可以实现类似远程桌面的功能,但它的实现方式和远程桌面不同,一般来说远程桌面必须要有网络支持,在机器关闭或者启动过程中无法连接。而console是通过esx的虚拟化组件实现远程桌面。在其sample代码中有一个用html+js编写ActiveX插件的示例。
下方是一个用winform写的console远程截图。
在vmware的developer center中,下载vmrc sdk,它会以com组件的形式安装,你可以在vs工具箱中找到。
下面上一段sample代码
1 using System; 2 using System.Linq; 3 using System.Windows.Forms; 4 5 using Vim25Api; 6 using AppUtil; 7 8 namespace WindowsFormsApplication1 9 {10 public partial class Form1 : Form11 {12 public AppUtil.AppUtil util = null;13 14 public Form1()15 {16 InitializeComponent(); 17 }18 19 private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)20 {21 String[] arguments = new string[] {22 "--url", "https://192.168.0.161/sdk", 23 "--username","root",24 "--password","P@ssw0rd", 25 "--disablesso", "true",26 "--ignorecert", "true"};27 try28 {29 this.axVMwareEmbeddedRemoteConsole1.startup(2, VMwareRemoteConsoleTypeLib.VMRC_MessageMode.VMRC_DIALOG_MESSAGES, null);30 31 util = AppUtil.AppUtil.initialize("Connect", constructOptions(), arguments.ToArray());32 util.connect();33 34 ManagedObjectReference mor = util.getConnection().ServiceRef;35 ManagedObjectReference sessionMor = util._connection.Service.RetrieveServiceContent(mor).sessionManager;36 string ticket = util._connection.Service.AcquireCloneTicket(sessionMor);37 ManagedObjectReference vmMor = util.getServiceUtil().GetDecendentMoRef(null, "VirtualMachine", "test");38 39 axVMwareEmbeddedRemoteConsole1.connect("192.168.0.161", null, true, ticket, null, null, vmMor.Value, null, null);40 }41 catch(Exception ex)42 {43 MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());44 45 this.axVMwareEmbeddedRemoteConsole1.disconnect();46 util.disConnect();47 }48 }49 private static OptionSpec[] constructOptions()50 {51 OptionSpec[] useroptions = new OptionSpec[5];52 useroptions[0] = new OptionSpec("url", "String", 1, "ser url", null);53 useroptions[1] = new OptionSpec("username", "String", 1, "user name", null);54 useroptions[2] = new OptionSpec("password", "String", 1, "password", null);55 useroptions[3] = new OptionSpec("disablesso", "bool", 0, "disablesso", null);56 useroptions[4] = new OptionSpec("ignorecert", "bool", 1, "ignorecert", null);57 return useroptions;58 }59 60 private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)61 {62 axVMwareEmbeddedRemoteConsole1.disconnect();63 util.disConnect();64 }65 }66 }
在建立connect连接时,有几个重要的参数
url为https://主机ip/sdk,登录帐号也是主机esx的帐号。
disablesso表示禁用sso单点登录验证,这个要加上,因为在我们远程登录验证不会使用sso。
ignorecert这个参数也要加上,不然会证书验证导致The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.
这些参数如何运作可以到vsphere sdk中的apputil项目下找到。
