Unmanaged cloud: using the VNC console
This guide explains how to access the VNC console of an unmanaged Cloud Server with Infomaniak.
- open the Manager (https://manager.infomaniak.com)
- go to Cloud Server
- click on the server concerned
- click on Open the VNC console
The initial access to the server is by SSH key. You therefore need to assign a password to the Root account or to create another user before being able to authenticate yourself with the VNC console.
p>If a display console display problem arises, then from your VM:
in /etc/default/grub
modify GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, GRUB_GFXMODE and GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX (this last variable is probably missing and is to be added)
earlyprintk=ttyS0,115200 consoleblank=0 systemd.show_status=true video=VGA-1:1280x1024"
GRUB_GFXMODE=1280x1024x16
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
Then update grub and restart:
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfgThe resolution can be changed (1000x400 instead of1280x1024 for example) to enable the display of the VNC console withjn the administration without opening a new tab.
