9.5.7. Connect to the serial console by using the web console
You can connect to the serial console of a virtual machine (VM) by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console. If you connect to a Windows VM with a vGPU assigned as a mediated device, you can switch between the default display and the vGPU display.
Running concurrent VNC connections to a single virtual machine is not currently supported.
