Re: [Astlinux-devel] Astlinux on Azure

[Michael K. <mic...@ip...>]

Hi Group

In my search to find a reliable cloud provider, I'm now going to be putting a number of Astlinux boxes in Azure. We have now fully documented the process so will get an article up once tested again.
One thing we cant get going but did previously is the Serial Console. I changed the "Out-of-Band Console Access" as per the Linode article below but it still doesn't work e.g. it connects to the tty but no output.
I am using the 1.3.10 VM image.

Any ideas? Has something changed in 1.3.10?

Regards
Michael Knill

    Thanks for that. I figured it would be easy.

        Hi Michael,

        Great to hear !

        If their serial setup is anything similar to Linode's

        https://doc.astlinux-project.org/userdoc:hosted_guest_vm_linode

        Search for "Out-of-Band Console Access"

        Basically a simple edit of the /etc/inittab file.

        Is it pretty straight-forward? sure, any helpful documentation is great.
