Bug Description
From testing, it seems like VNC consoles do not work with the VCDriver.
There are actually two issues, one a doc issue, one a code issue.
1) Doc issue:
For vSphere version 5+, you need to poke a hole in the ESX firewall to allow VNC traffic. See: http://
2) Code issue:
It seems like VNC consoles works with the ESXDriver, was not updated for the VCDriver, as get_vnc_console returns CONF.vmwareapi_

I'm working on a patch for this that changes the behavior of the driver for vCenter so that we end up talking to the correct IP.
