How to enable SOL

[Yang Zhang]

Hi All,

I am trying to set up SOL on my platform. On my platform, ttyS2 is
connected to the host.
I can use ssh -p 2202 localhost to see the output from the host, but
when I run ipmitool sol activate, it shows nothing except the
following:

ipmitool -I lanplus -C 17 -H 192.168.10.178 -U root -P 0penBmc sol activate
[SOL Session operational.  Use ~? for help]

I guess the reason is that I haven’t bound SOL to ttyS2, and I don’t
know how to do this. Are there any settings to bind SOL to ttyS2?

Or maybe there are other configurations I need to add?

Here is the config I used:
obmc-console_%.bbappend:
FILESEXTRAPATHS:append := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:"
RDEPENDS:${PN} += "bash"

# Declare port specific config files
OBMC_CONSOLE_TTYS = "ttyS0 ttyS2"
CONSOLE_CLIENT = "2200 2202 "

SRC_URI += " \
             ${@compose_list(d, 'CONSOLE_SERVER_CONF_FMT',
'OBMC_CONSOLE_TTYS')} \
             ${@compose_list(d, 'CONSOLE_CLIENT_CONF_FMT', 'CONSOLE_CLIENT')} \
           "

SYSTEMD_SERVICE:${PN}:append = " \
                                ${@compose_list(d,
'CONSOLE_CLIENT_SERVICE_FMT', 'CONSOLE_CLIENT')} \
                               "

do_install:append() {
    # Install the console client configurations
    install -m 0644 ${UNPACKDIR}/client.*.conf ${D}${sysconfdir}/${BPN}/
}

$ cat server.ttyS0.conf
# console-id is default to obmc-console
local-tty = ttyS0
local-tty-baud = 115200

$ cat client.2200.conf
# console-id is default to obmc-console

$ cat server.ttyS2.conf
local-tty = ttyS2
local-tty-baud = 115200
console-id = ttyS2

$ cat client.2202.conf
console-id = ttyS2
