Serial over lan

Post by diosim » 2017/07/12 08:48:51

Morning Everyone,

I'm currently testing serial over lan on centos 7.3.

The boot process is really slow, and stuck at some point, just to compare without serial over lan from the grub, boot process is less than 1min.

Do we need special options in the grub? What could be causing this issue?

Here my grub:

Code: Select all

GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"
GRUB_TERMINAL="console serial"
GRUB_SERIAL_COMMAND="serial --speed=115200 --port=0x30e0 --unit=0 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="console=tty0 console=ttyS1,115200,rhgb"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
Here the boot process log, stuck at this point. It takes at least 10min until this process.

Hi,
Did you find a solution?

I have the same problem with Supermicro X9SRi-F (bios 3.0a and 3.2a). Bios 1.0c works ok.
Not a single message from systemd is printed every 30 seconds. Also these are followed by kernel messages which is a mess.
I never get a login prompt - maybe this would show up after several hours.

Hello,

Yes, the issue was coming from the hardware, I had to try on a different hardware, and it worked straight, just had to put on the grub console ttyS`on Centos 7.4.

Thanks.
