Microsoft ha publicado la nueva version del cliente de maquinas virtuales “Virtual Machine Remote Control Client Plus (VMRCplus)“. Esta nueva version tiene muchos cambios en comparacion con laa versión anterior. Principalmente la parte grafica es totalmente distinta, mucho mas amigable.

VMRCplus es una herramienta gratuita que nos permite utilizar Virtual Server sin necesidad de tener instalada la interface Web. Nos permita administrar la consola de nuestro Virtual Server y tomar control de todas nuestras Virtual Machines.

Permite administrar hasta 32 VMs Host, nos permite ordenar el listado de nuestras VMs segun la caracteristica que nosotros querramos, como ser nombre, status o su descripcion. Tambien nos permite hacer cambios en varias VMs simultaneamente seleccionandolas y modificando el valor deseado, y obviamente VMRCplus no requiere el IIS para administrar un Virtual Server, ya que es una aplicacion Windows.

Los nuevos features de  Virtual Machine Remote Control Client Plus (VMRCPLUS) son los siguientes:

• Direct control of local or remote instances of the Virtual Server service. IIS and IE browser are no longer required!
• Tabbed interface to quickly jump between Virtual Server hosts and guest VMRC sessions.
• Reusable saved states: this feature allows users to preserve a particular saved state and return to that state at any time.
• Multiple guest selection supported for startup/shutdown/save/display.

• Resizable desktop support for guests running Virtual Machine Additions (maximize VMRC window supported).
• Limited cut and paste of text from host to guest (only).
• A built-in utility to take JPG screenshots of running guests. Useful when filing bugs.

• A Virtual Networks Manager and Virtual Disks Manager that cover all features.
• Keyboard shortcuts (e.g. Ctrl-S to save state a guest).
• Create multiple guests at once.

• Automatic reconnect to a designated Virtual Server host.
