Here is an example of what happens on my system:
Feb 25 14:29:13 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Started Getty on tty1.
Feb 25 14:29:13 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting Getty on tty1...
Feb 25 14:29:13 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Started Getty on tty6.
Feb 25 14:29:13 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting Getty on tty6...
It looks like systemd is not even being invoked to set up ttys. That
is what inactive dead means to me, anyway. Try, as root,
systemctl unmask getty@tty1.service
systemctl enable getty@tty1.service
systemctl start getty@tty1.service
The @ might need to be escaped. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of
ideas. Maybe someone else can point you in the right direction.
If this works for getty1, all the gettys should start at the next
reboot (I think).
The getty@tty1.service is dead probably because the X server was
started at some point, and that takes over tty1.
tty2-6 will not be started unless you try to use them (e.g. the getty
on tty2 will only start if you use ALT-F2 from a console screen or
CTRL-ALT-F2 from the desktop). Once they're started, however, they
continue to run.
