Hi,
i'd like to use the linux Magic SysRq with an ILO network adapter. I managed to get the virtual serial port running. While googleing a lot, i found that the SysRq has to be initiated in a serial connection with ESC-Ctrl-B (break) and afterwards the key for the desired SysRq function. But that doesn't work. When i press ESC-CTRL-B quickly sucessively and afterwards one key for the desired SysRq-function, e.g. 'S' for sync, i always get a help message for SysRq:
Sep 9 16:30:20 sunhb58820 kernel: [ 6948.509447] SysRq : HELP : loglevel(0-9) reBoot Crash terminate-all-tasks(E) memory-full-oom-kill(F) kill-all-tasks(I) thaw-filesystems(J) saK show-backtrace-all-active-cpus(L) show-memory-usage(M) nice-all-RT-tasks(N) powerOff show-registers(P) show-all-timers(Q) unRaw Sync show-task-states(T) Unmount force-fb(V) show-blocked-tasks(W) dump-ftrace-buffer(Z)
Using any letter like Q or T or W does not work. I always get the help message, just numbers to change the loglevel (0-9) work.
Any help appreciated
Bernd
P.S. IT's a ILO 2 adapter, firmware 2.25, host ML 350 G6, system ROM 07/02/2013
