Console VM Copy/Paste

Hi, Is it possible to enable the copy-and-paste function in the VM console? In the virtual machine configuration, I see the following line; however, even after changing it to 0.0.0.0, I still cannot connect via VNC.1.png

Hello @hlago 
Hope you are doing well.

Toggling VNC ports (e.g., setting to 0.0.0.0) doesn’t enable clipboard functionality — VNC simply does not support it.
Clipboard copy/paste requires switching to the SSH console method.
To enable copy-and-paste in Morpheus VM console:

Turn off the VNC-based Hypervisor Console (enabling SSH mode).
Use the built-in “Paste Text Here” field to insert clipboard content into the SSH console window.

You’ll get reliable copy/paste support once you're in SSH console mode.
If you feel this was helpful, please click the KUDOS thumb below.

Re: Console VM Copy/Paste

I´m referring to being able to copy and paste from another machine to the VME console of a Windows machine, for example, just as you can do in VMware using the VMware Remote Console.

Thanks
