ConMan: The Console Manager

ConMan is a serial console management program designed to support a large number of console devices and simultaneous users.

Supported console types:

  • Local serial devices
  • Remote terminal servers (via the telnet protocol)
  • IPMI Serial-Over-LAN (via FreeIPMI's libipmiconsole)
  • External processes (e.g., Expect)
  • Unix domain sockets

Features:

  • Mapping symbolic names to console devices
  • Logging (and optionally timestamping) console output to file
  • Connecting to a console in monitor (R/O) or interactive (R/W) mode
  • Connecting to multiple consoles for broadcasting (W/O) client output
  • Sharing a console session amongst multiple simultaneous clients
  • Allowing clients to share or steal console "write" privileges
  • Executing Expect scripts across multiple consoles in parallel
