Hi All,

Just to be clear, the Windows 2012 OpenStack Additional available via Cloudbase.it has a very specific license.    Please make sure you are aware prior to using, as it is meant for "OpenStack Testing" and not production workloads.

Hi Brian,

The Windows server 2012 OpenStack edition comes with TCP port 3389 enabled. I don't think we should specify it in the security groups as this is already taken care in the Windows firewall.

Thanks

For windows, you could add TCP port 3389 to your security group and enable remote desktop access in windows.  The VNC console access in Horizon is really intended for administrative/management access rather than production usage.

Hallo All,

Currently, I use VNC to access the windows virtual machine deployed in OpenStack. But this gives me a smaller view of the Windows GUI or Desktop. Is there any way from the Horizon GUI to have an enlarged view of the Windows Desktop?

Can I get any suggestions to connect to the windows virtual machine remotely apart from using VNC?

Thanks

Hi JuanFra,

Thanks for the suggestion regarding the usage of cloudinit for windows instances.

For all Stackers - I found this URI<http://www.cloudbase.it/ws2012/> useful where there is a Windows Server 2012 Evaluation image available for download and it can be directly deployed to OpenStack. I was able to download and deploy the image in our ESSEX cloud and create a VM successfully out of the image.

Thanks

I think a great tool would be Cloudbase's cloud-init for windows instances:
