qm-vncproxy: Proxy a specific virtual machine.
$ qm vncproxy ${vm_id}
try on your machine

This command is using the "qm" tool to start a VNC proxy for a specific virtual machine.

The "qm" command is a tool used for managing virtual machines on a Proxmox VE (Virtual Environment) server. It allows you to create, delete, start, stop, and perform other operations on virtual machines.

The "vncproxy" option is used to start a VNC (Virtual Network Computing) proxy for a virtual machine. It enables a user to connect to the virtual machine's graphical console remotely through a VNC viewer.

In the command, "${vm_id}" is a placeholder for the ID of the virtual machine for which you want to start the VNC proxy. You would substitute it with the actual ID of the virtual machine you are targeting.

Overall, this command allows you to initiate a VNC proxy connection to the specified virtual machine, enabling remote graphical console access.
