I am trying to get a CentOS 6.3 serial console to work with IPMI SOL. I think I
have everything working but maybe the wrong baud rate on the getty:
$ ipmitool -I lanplus -U root -H 10.0.0.14 sol activate
Password:
[SOL Session operational. Use ~? for help]
����������
10.0.0.14 is the DRAC IP address of the CentOS 6.3 box. It accepts the password
and connects me to the console but then when I type I get those funny
characters. Somehow an agetty is already being run:
root 46110 1 0 16:13 ttyS1 00:00:00 /sbin/agetty /dev/ttyS1 19200 vt100-nav
Is udev starting this up for me somehow? It says 19200 when everything I have
read says it should be 115200. How do I change this? Some docs say I should
create my own /etc/init/serial-ttyS1.conf containing:
# For IPMI serial console
# ttyS1 - agetty
#
# This service maintains a agetty on ttyS1.
stop on runlevel [S016]
start on runlevel [23]
respawn
exec agetty -h -L -w /dev/ttyS1 115200 vt102
but when I do that I end up with two gettys, presumably fighting over the
serial port, and the original is apparently holding onto it because I still
can't connect and get a login prompt.
# ps -ef |grep agetty
root 46110 1 0 16:13 ttyS1 00:00:00 /sbin/agetty /dev/ttyS1 19200 vt100-nav
root 46118 1 0 16:13 ? 00:00:00 agetty -h -L -w /dev/ttyS1 115200 vt102
What is the right way to set this up?
Thanks!
