Command to console into vcmp guest from host?

I know I have this somewhere in my notes, but can't find it (it's like trying to find something in a cluttered garage sometimes)...

 

What is the command to console into a vcmp guest from a host (for example, a 7200 chassis)?

 

This would be handy in the event an upgrade on a vcmp guest was taking longer than expected and I wanted to see what was going on, where it was in the boot process, etc.

 

Thanks!

  • Hi,

    At the vcmp host and tmsh shell, run:

    vconsole <guest_name> <slot_number>

     

    To exit the vconsole utility, use the Ctrl + ] key sequence.
