Conversation
This RFD proposes exposing console access to Triton instances through CloudAPI via WebSocket endpoints. Currently, console access requires SSH access to compute nodes via vmadm console command. The solution provides: - Serial console access to KVM instances - Zone console access to SmartOS native zones (Joyent brands) - Zone console access to LX instances - Zone console access to Bhyve instances Implementation follows the existing VNC architecture pattern, with CloudAPI WebSocket endpoint proxying to vmadmd TCP proxies on compute nodes. Key changes: - vmadmd: Console proxy infrastructure - CNAPI: New console endpoint - CloudAPI: WebSocket console endpoint - node-triton: New 'triton instance console' command
