OpenBMC host console support
============================
This document describes how to connect to the host UART console from an OpenBMC
management system.
The console infrastructure allows multiple shared connections to a single host
UART. UART data from the host is output to all connections, and input from any
connection is sent to the host.
Remote console connections
--------------------------
To connect to an OpenBMC console session remotely, just ssh to your BMC on port
2200. Use the same login credentials you would for a normal ssh session:
$ ssh -p 2200 [user]@[bmc-hostname]
Local console connections
-------------------------
If you're already logged into an OpenBMC machine, you can start a console
session directly, using:
$ obmc-console-client
To exit from a console, type:
return ~ .
Note that if you're on an ssh connection, you'll need to 'escape' the ~
character, by entering it twice.
Logging
-------
Console logs are kept in:
/var/log/obmc-console.log
This log is limited in size, and will wrap after hitting that limit (currently
set at 16kB).
