Logging in to your VM

Jetstream allows multiple methods for accessing and using your VM:

• Command line interface:
  • Web Shell: The Open Web Shell and Open Web Desktop available on use.jetstream-cloud.org are the preferred methods.
  • SSH: You may also log in to your instance directly via an SSH command-line
• Graphical interface:

  • Web Desktop - Images with VNC/GUI/Desktop enabled will display  under the LINKS items in the instance detailed view (found by clicking on the instance title). You may have to use your browser's refresh button to make it appear.

    Simply click on  to start a browser-based VNC implementation.

  • VNC client: graphical encrypted VNC desktop from your host computer.

Some images support additional mechanisms for accessing your VM. Some of these additional access methods are noted in image specific documentation.
