Problem accessing VM Host Console

mr_red — Mon, 04 Jun 2012 08:39:32 GMT

Hi!

I'm trying to access VM Host console through the Host MP. The issue is that I find myself in the VM Guest console !

I've read someone here who saved the problem with a hard booting which is not an option for me due the criticality of the system.

Is there any solution ?

We are using HP-UX 11iv3.

Hi,

If you have logged into the physical console of a VM Host and then run hpvmconsole interactively.

To return to the physical console, press Ctrl/B.

To return to the virtual console main menu, press Ctrl/X.

>>>I'm trying to access VM Host console through the Host MP. The issue is that I find myself in the VM Guest console !

It looks like you are pressing Ctrl/X. Press Ctrl/B for physical console.

I'm logged in the MP of the VM HOST. But for something wrong when i press CO to enter the VM HOST console, i find myself in one of the VM guests console.

You can just press ‘X’ and come out from VM guest console as shown below:

MP> CO

CO: Console

CM: Command Menu

CL: Console Log

SL: Show Event Logs

VM: Virtual Machine Menu

HE: Main Help Menu

X: Exit Connection

[guest name] vMP> X

Now, log to VM HOST console using ctrl/B.
