<div dir="ltr">There is nothing wrong with the openstack side according to your context, but you need to double check the BMC configuration and kernel parameters before you can make it work in the dashboard or shellinabox web service. You should have something like "console=ttyS0,115200n8" in the kernel parameters, and the parameters should match what's configured in the BIOS.<div><br><div>I'd suggest you to start diagnosing with ipmitool because it's the underlying tool used by ironic, try ipmitool <address, port arguments> sol activate, if you can't do anything there, you definity can't do anything from socat/shellinabox.</div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Nov 13, 2020 at 4:17 PM Ankele zhang <<a href="mailto:ankelezhang@gmail.com">ankelezhang@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hello~ Wang<div><br></div><div>Thanks for your email very much, you show me hope.</div><div>There are some problems that need your help.</div><div><br></div><div>My Ironic baremetal node's BIOS has enabled the SOL, and I have configure the baremetal node correctly guided by '<a href="https://docs.openstack.org/rocky" target="_blank">https://docs.openstack.org/rocky</a>' and the result of the command line 'openstack baremetal node console' is ok, but the SOL page is still frozen.
