MS Hyper-V guest serial consoles
« on: Apr 7th, 2011, 9:22am »		 Quote Quote Modify Modify
I have a Windows 2008 Server running Hyper-V with several Red Hat Linux guests running on it.  I'm trying to figure how I can access the serial console of each guest.  I see an option in the settings for each guest that I can create a named pipe.  Would the Serial Port Redirector product work for what I'm trying to do?  
 
thanks

Dear hizlup,
 
Serial Port Redirector creates its own Virtual COM ports in system that can be connected with remote host. You can use "socat" utility on guest OS to redirect input/output of the console to TCP socket. Serial Port Redirector can not communicate with system pipes. Please specify the goal you are trying to achieve so we can give you a proper piece of advice.
 
Thanks.
