Bug Description

At the moment, there is no support for XenAPI text console.

https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/xenapi/vmops.py#L1345

According to this blueprint, there is a feature in XS 6 that allows us to check it, but I'm still doing my readings...

So after further research, I have found a way to get all the console output from a specific point onwards. This would mean that the output is empty if we connect right away.

The resolution I see is to have a daemon that runs and keeps in track with all the consoles, however I am not sure on the best way to approach this.
