Enable netconsole for host This enables the netconsole on a host to send kernel/dmesg logs to a remote host. This can be very useful if a node is experiencing a kernel oops or another form of unexpected disconnect where you can not retrieve information via standard logging methods. The ``netconsole_remote_ip`` and ``netconsole_remote_port`` variables must be set. This host can capture the logs with a command like:: $ nc -v -u -l -p 6666 | tee console-output.log or:: $ socat udp-recv:6666 - | tee console-output.log One further trick is to send interesting data to ``/dev/kmsg``, this should make it across the netconsole even if the main interface has been disabled, etc. e.g.:: $ ip addr | sudo tee /dev/kmsg **Role Variables** .. zuul:rolevar:: netconsole_remote_ip The IP address of the remote host to send to. .. zuul:rolevar:: netconsole_remote_port The port listening on the remote host.
