新安装一台虚拟机后，是无法通过virsh console 命令连入虚拟机中的，这时我们需要开启虚拟机的console功能。
一、添加ttyS0的许可，允许root登陆
[root@localhost ~]# echo "ttyS0" >> /etc/securetty
二、编辑/etc/grub.conf中加入console=ttyS0
[root@localhost ~]# less /etc/grub.conf
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,0)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root
# initrd /initrd-[generic-]version.img
#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title CentOS (2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 ro root=/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root rd_NO_LUKS LANG=en_US.UTF-8 rd_NO_MD rd_LVM_LV=VolGroup/lv_swap SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 crashkernel=128M rd_LVM_LV=VolGroup/lv_root KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us rd_NO_DM rhgb quiet console=ttyS0
initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64.img
[root@localhost ~]#
三、编辑/etc/inittab，在最后一行加入内容 S0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty ttyS0 115200
[root@localhost ~]# less /etc/inittab
# inittab is only used by upstart for the default runlevel.
#
# ADDING OTHER CONFIGURATION HERE WILL HAVE NO EFFECT ON YOUR SYSTEM.
#
# System initialization is started by /etc/init/rcS.conf
#
# Individual runlevels are started by /etc/init/rc.conf
#
# Ctrl-Alt-Delete is handled by /etc/init/control-alt-delete.conf
#
# Terminal gettys are handled by /etc/init/tty.conf and /etc/init/serial.conf,
# with configuration in /etc/sysconfig/init.
#
# For information on how to write upstart event handlers, or how
# upstart works, see init(5), init(8), and initctl(8).
#
# Default runlevel. The runlevels used are:
# 0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
# 1 - Single user mode
# 2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking)
# 3 - Full multiuser mode
# 4 - unused
# 5 - X11
# 6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
#
id:5:initdefault:
S0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty ttyS0 115200
[root@localhost ~]#
四、重启服务器
[root@localhost ~]# reboot
五、在宿主机上测试连接
[root@study ~]# virsh list
Id Name State
----------------------------------------------------
4 centos running
[root@study ~]# virsh console 4

CentOS release 6.5 (Final)
Kernel 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 on an x86_64
localhost.localdomain login: root
Password:
Last login: Thu Oct 13 02:51:30 on ttyS0
[root@localhost ~]#
注：按 ctrl+] 组合键退出virsh console
对于centos 7
在虚机里运行
[root@localhost ~]# grubby --update-kernel=ALL --args="console=ttyS0"
then
[root@localhost ~]# reboot
即可
