virtual serial console on lo100 is read-only
I have an DL 120 G6 which is equipped with a lo100 remote management interface. I am kind of confused with the serial console.
I have a serial console server connected to the physical serial port on my DL120. It's configured to 115200n8 and works fine: I can access the BIOS, and what I type gets sent to the BIOS and later to the boot manager and even more later to the running OS.
However, when I ssh to the lo100 and say "cd /system1/console1" and "start", I get a read-only view to the console: I can see the POST going on and watch the OS booting, but I cannot type anything. Neither to BIOS, neither the boot manager, neither the running OS seems to receive what I type. When I type something on the "real" serial console or on the "real" physical console, I can watch what happens on the lo100's virtual console, but I cannot type anything there.
Pulling the physical serial console and resetting the lo100 doesn't change this behavior, the lo100's virtual console is a read-only interface.
Am I doing something wrong? If so, what am I doing wrong?
Greetings
Marc

Re: virtual serial console on lo100 is read-only
LO100 provides text mode console redirection, DMTF SMASH compliant command line interface, and browser access to many of the same system management functions. You can access LO100 through a dedicated Ethernet port or through the server serial port.
Enabling Serial Access to HP ProLiant Lights-Out 100 (LO100)On HP ProLiant DL120 G5 servers, perform the following steps:
ROM-Based Setup, press the F10 key
Press the down arrow (├в ) key to scroll to IO Device Configuration .
Press the Enter key.
Set Embedded Serial Port Mode to BMC .
Set Embedded Serial Port to Enabled .

Re: virtual serial console on lo100 is read-only
This gives the behavior I have described in the thread starter, with a read-only virtual console.

Re: virtual serial console on lo100 is read-only
The Virtual KVM / Media option is an advanced feature available through license.
DL120 G6 servers, verify the following settings:
Console Redirection
├в BIOS Serial console├в Enabled
├в Baud Rate-9600
I/O Device Configuration
├в Embedded Serial Port Mode├в BMC
├в Embedded Serial Port├в Enabled
for more configuration options, refer to HP ProLiant Lights Out-100 User Guide For HP ProLiant G6 and G7 Servers

Re: virtual serial console on lo100 is read-only
I seem to have the same problem, read-only access to serial port.

Re: virtual serial console on lo100 is read-only
no, I have not been able to resolve this issue yet.
I have reset the lo100 to its factory settings by turning on the unit with the battery removed, but that didn't help either.
