Bug Description

Reproduced on 7.0

When provisioning is done and a node is rebooted there is no way to log into the node via serial port. It may be crucial when a server has IPMI SerialOnLAN only and the server has failed to get IP settings for some reason. It's hard to debug such environments.

Workaround: I didn't test it but it should be straightforward. Run getty on /dev/ttyS0 like in [1]

This is a feature request. Removing from the Mitaka release because we don't backport patches of this kind.

    Run console on the serial port if required

    This commit adds the ability to use IPMI SOL console when the nodes
    provisioned with an option 'console=ttySx' or 'console=ttySx,speed',
    where x is 0 for the COM1 and 1 for COM2. If speed parameter doesn't
    provided so 9600 used as default. This feature can be used for the
    bootstrap nodes too.

Perhaps, this fix should be targeted to 9.1 too.
