Connect to VM remote console or web console from another VM

  • 1.  Connect to VM remote console or web console from another VM

    Posted Nov 28, 2022 08:26 PM

    Is it possible to connect to the console of a VM from another VM (on the same physical host that runs ESXi 7.0) with either a VMRC, VMC or a web browser?

    I have three controller VMs on my host and I want to have an access point to the consoles of these 3 controller VMs from another (single) management VM. 

    Currently I can connect to each one from my "remote" PC without an issue but because the host will eventually be a "standalone" system, I want to re-create my PC (as it were) as a management VM that is collocated with the controller VMs.

    The management VM can be either Windows or Linux.

    Can I use a VMRC proxy on a VM?

    Has anyone ever done anything like this?
