Right, just a SMOP.... NOT.
Actually, even with vCenter (which we also have) getting a console
is not a foregone conclusion. It is a browser plugin which actually
right now does not work for me on my linux desktop.
On second thought, perhaps you're suggesting what I often do, RDP to
a windows machine with vCenter, which does work, but is less than
elegant: RDP from machine 1 to a virtual machine 2, accessing a
hypervisor running on physical host 3 that accesses a virtual
machine 4.
