Description

The InstanceConsoleConnection API provides you with console access to Compute instances, enabling you to troubleshoot malfunctioning instances remotely.

For more information about instance console connections, see Troubleshooting Instances Using Instance Console Connections.

If you are attempting to start a VNC connection to an instance from a Windows machine without SSH installed, you can consider using plink instead. The ‘oci compute instance-console-connection get-plink-connection-string’ command returns a PowerShell command which uses plink to launch the SSH tunnel necessary to start a VNC connection to the instance.
