How to Manage the Console session of a guest VM remotely, such as with RDP to the Host? (from XP?)
i've installed xp , 2003 guest machines host either:
1) using host , no problem working console session
2) remotely via rdp xp box , suffering without mouse control before install integration services.
afterwards, because rdp directly vm.
however, i've done p2v conversion using hack method (acronis backup converted vhd) , vm isn't booting. away vm host , have use rdp it. i'm running annoying "can't use mouse in guest" problem because of course integration services aren't installed on failed p2v guest yet.
i think have fix p2v guest maybe change hal.dll or @ repair install , running that's hard without mouse.
what can remotely access vm guest mouse control?
from talking someone, believe have use vista os rdp host before mouse work; right? i'm not in position use vista office pc xp pro.
is there solution other go server room , work on host?
how installing vista on vm, rdping , vista vm, rdp to own host , running console? not sounds huge kludge if works waste of cycles , memory on host.
can microsoft not write app free vmrc+ worked reasonably virtual server 2005--and runs on xp?

presumably running full 2008 host rather core, means can use rdp host use hyper-v manager control of vm's.
ive done few p2v conversions , had same irritation of lack of mouse, keyboard works. takes choosing install integration services option hyper-v manager, iso mounted guest , autorun (if enabled). can control install via keyboard.
you take here:

if p2v guest running can vm detect hal, go msconfig, go boot options , choose detect hal checkbox, reboot vm , hal should replaced.
no don't have use vista rdp host mouse work in vm. mouse won't work on vm until add integration services guest. in cases, using physical machines console give mouse control on vm without integration service, not on p2v.
you have use vista machine if want use hyper-v manager remotely, isn't available xp. best way manage host hyper-v settings , vm's.
ms have written free app, hyper-v manager vista. guess pointless them make version xp given has been superceded vista.
