Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Waldirio M Pinheiro 2018-04-13 08:07:28 UTC 
Description of problem:
When configuring everything to access the VM console via Satellite webUI we are unable to connect. After do a deep research I got the information that this kind of connection *VNC* should be deprecated from the vSphere side, now keeping just the VMRC support.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.3.x and 6.2.x, the main issue here is the vSphere version, if product/hypervisor is running 6.5 then will fail.

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure everything according [1] and [2]
2. Test the connection

[1]. https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3410621
[2]. https://theforeman.org/manuals/1.11/index.html#7.1NoVNC

Actual results:
Error on the Satellite webUI

Expected results:
VM Console

Hi all

Checking for the issue when accessing VM console on machines running over ESX 6.5 *and testing locally in our labs* I got some links according below


https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1524301
- Here we can see the issue for some browsers but nothing related to vCenter

https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2844021
- Here one great explanation about what should be done to configure the environment and at the end one great comment from Lukas about vSphere *Adrian, we don't support that on VMWare, only libvirt and RHEV/oVirt for now.*

https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/17727
- The specific issue when using vSphere 6.5


http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/22062
- Support VMWare VMRC Console *here the upstream code updated*
Comment 3 Satellite Program 2018-04-13 10:19:55 UTC 
Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite 6 since the upstream issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/17727 has been resolved.
Comment 5 Sanket Jagtap 2018-09-05 18:33:20 UTC 
Build:Satellite 6.4.0 snap20

Satellite now has a option to select VMRC display type when creating a Vmware Compute resource.

Install VMRC Console on machine.
Navigate to the host and click Console.
Click Launch VMRC console.

PFA to see the VMRC launched Console
