Problem description:
I tried to follow https://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Unable_to_connect_to_console_of_a_running_domain to enable virsh console IAS(my guest name), but failed with step 1. When i use virsh edit to change the content in below, it will be restore back
<serial type='pty'>
<target type='isa-serial' port='0'>
<model name='isa-serial'/>
</target>
</serial>
<console type='pty'>
<target type='serial' port='0'/>
</console>
->
<serial type='pty'>
<target port='0'/>
</serial>
<console type='pty'>
<target type='serial' port='0'/>
</console>
And i am ok to do step 2 by:
guestmount -a /var/lib/libvirt/images/IAC.qcow2 -i --rw /mnt
and change below section to /boot/grub/grub.cfg
linux /vmlinuz-5.4.0-126-generic root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv rw
->
linux /vmlinuz-5.4.0-126-generic root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv rw console=ttyS0,115200
Then i tried to use virsh console, it shows like below:
root@robot:~# virsh console IAS
Connected to domain IAS
Escape character is ^]
More info
when i started the IAS, i see below log in /var/log/syslog
