Hello, I have several physical hosts, each of them hosting several UML virtual machines. "conserver" is installed on each physical host, so that I can access my UML virtual machines "uml10", "uml11", etc... with console, such as in the following exemple: +-------------------+ +-------------------+ +-------------------+ | host1 + conserver | | host2 + conserver | | host3 + conserver | | | | | | | | uml10: /dev/ttya0 | | uml20: /dev/ttya0 | | uml30: /dev/ttya0 | | uml11: /dev/ttya1 | | uml21: /dev/ttya1 | | uml31: /dev/ttya1 | | uml12: /dev/ttya2 | | uml22: /dev/ttya2 | | uml32: /dev/ttya2 | +-------------------+ +-------------------+ +-------------------+ For examples: - from "host1": I access the "uml11" with "console uml11" (via the ttya1 on host1 physical machine) - from "host2": I access the "uml20" with "console uml20" (via the ttya0 on host2 physical machine) - from "host3": I access the "uml32" with "console uml32" (via the ttya2 on host3 physical machine) - etc... For the above example, I know how to set up the 3 "conserver.cf" files on the 3 physical hosts. Now, I would like to have a "hostmaster conserver" with "conserver" installed, so that I can access to any UML virtual machine hosted on all physical nodes, from the hostmaster, such as in the following example: +------------------------+ | hostmaster + conserver | | | | /dev/ttyp0 -> uml10 | | /dev/ttyp1 -> uml11 | | /dev/ttyp2 -> uml11 | | /dev/ttyp3 -> uml20 | | /dev/ttyp4 -> uml21 | | /dev/ttyp5 -> uml22 | | /dev/ttyp6 -> uml30 | | /dev/ttyp7 -> uml31 | | /dev/ttyp8 -> uml32 | +------------------------+ ^ ^ ^ | | | | | | host1 host2 host3 For examples, from "hostmaster": - I access the "uml11" with "console uml11" (via the ttyp1 on hostmaster --> ttya1 on host1) - I access the "uml20" with "console uml20" (via the ttyp3 on hostmaster --> ttya0 on host2) - I access the "uml32" with "console uml32" (via the ttyp8 on hostmaster --> ttya2 on host3) - etc... I read several documentations found on the web, but I'm a little bit confused with all the parameter to set in "conserver.cf" config files on either "hostmaster" or "hostX" (such as "master" paramaters). Would you have some info or good tips to give me for such a configuration ? Thanks a lot in advance, Samuel
