syslog: getty: cannot open "console". errno: 6
Node 1 keeps failing
When i check the OLDsyslog (I rebooted to fix it)i see
Sep 9 21:31:21 cbilmpn1 ftpd[15089]: User bmpadma logged out
Sep 9 16:37:50 cbilmpn1 syslog: getty: cannot open "console". errno: 6
The timestamp seems to have went back 5 hours as well.
On searchimg the error it mostly seems like a hardware issue with the core i/o but when i checked Tombstones there were no i/o errors.
I cant see a problem in gettydefs or innittab.
Any ideas?

Recycle the power of console and mux.
If the error repeats , try changing Mux/Console.

ll /dev/console
crw--w--w- 1 root tty 0 0x000000 Sep 1 22:40 /dev/console
It may have been deleted accidently. Check also for /dev/tty too.
