Automation of console setup
We never got around to either documenting, or better, automating the setup of console logging in Emulab. A couple of things that have to be done:
- Some interface in
newnode
to allow the user to specify what/where the console for a node is. - Code to auto-add DB state for serial or SOL consoles.
- Additional DB state (e.g., tty names) necessary to autogen capture entries to produce the equivalent of
run_capture
. - Code to add newsyslog.conf entries to roll console logs.
- Instructions for setup of
tipserv
nodes. - Fill out FreeBSD package for
emulab-tipserv
. - Method for updating Emulab software on tipserv nodes.
There is probably more.
